START WITH WHAT IS IN YOUR HANDS

Ways to help.

You may have time, skill, experience, resources, transportation, relationships, prayer, professional knowledge, property, funding, or simply a willingness to serve. Help Shows Up begins there.

CONTRIBUTOR INTAKE

Share enough for us to understand what you can bring, what matters to you, and where you would like that help to make a difference—whether that is Wellsprings Mission, a specific Emerging Initiative, your local community, or wherever your contribution may do the most good. Please do not include sensitive medical, legal, financial, immigration, or criminal-history information in this initial form.
