Let's Level UP Ladle Fellowship & UPLIFT San Diego!

Thank you for joining my efforts to raise funds for two of my favorite nonprofits! Ladle Fellowship and UPLIFT exist to make transformative impact in San Diego.I believe in both organizations wholeheartedly.

I serve as Director of Ladle Fellowship and have worked alondgside UPLIFT for many years. More importantly, I have witnessed with my own eyes and heart the incredible impact these groups have on the lives of those they serve. Here are links to their websites so you can learn more:

ABOUT LADLE FELLOWSHIP - Since 1983, the Ladle Fellowship has served San Diego's Homeless Community with hot meals & Clothing. However, for many people on the streets, the lack of hope is an even greater risk factor than lack of proper food, shelter, and clothing. By sharing God's gospel of grace, and living God's law of love, the Ladle Fellowship gives help and hope to those on the edge of society in our city. Explore this site to find out what makes Ladle Fellowship more than a soup kitchen. https://www.ladle2020.com/

LADLE URGENT COVID related expenses -

• Higher food cost - 50% increase due to COVID, Ladle has transitioned from mostly soups and casseroles to other easy to make meals to go.
• Packaging - Meals to go mean packaging requiring sudden purchase of paper/styrofoam products.

ABOUT UPLIFT - Urban People Living in Faith & Trust - Uplifting San Diego’s inner-city communities by transforming the lives of people in need with Homeless Services & Student Services.  https://www.upliftsandiego.org/

UPLIFT URGENT COVID related needs:

• added staff to train parents, students & tutors in transitioning our FREE Kids At Heart Tutoring from site based to virtual platform to support distance learning for low income students, who are especially at risk of falling behind in school right now.   
• added flex funds for homeless housing support to help with COVID Convention Center resident placement. About 1200 unsheltered there. No pressure! 

If you want to make a huge difference, please consider joining my team, starting your own team to support another favorite non-profit too, or if you have the means to give, please consider supporting our team with a generous donation. Any amount is greatly appreciated and will help us Level UP the transformative work of both these great organizations during this time of great need. 

Gratefully, 
John Savidge
Director, Ladle Fellowship
