No one sets out to start their nonprofit; most of the time, it’s something that’s formed out of a life experience or lack ofservices in the community. My husband, Daniel, and I started our organization, Compassion Delivered, because of a donation we had made to an organization in a different state. After hearing what we had been supporting, we wanted to see how we could bring something like this to our community. We love Stark County, I was born and raised here, and this is home to us. Stark County offers so much, so being able to take care of those who live here was extremely important to us. It is also breath of fresh air to see a community like ours with many nonprofits who want to love their community well. 

 

Over the last five years that we have had Compassion Delivered, we have had the opportunity to collaborate with other nonprofits in our community. Some of the connection has been through online support, sharing social media posts, attending events together, or collaborating on projects that better our community. I am grateful for this fantastic community of Nonprofits and individuals who give of their time to love others through meals, home projects, a warm bed, therapy opportunities, shelter, safety & security, support through giving, mentoring programs, a safe place for children to learn and grow, a place to volunteer and an opportunity to pay it forward. 

 

Welcome to our fantastic community, and we can’t wait to see you get involved. I am grateful for this amazing network of people and if we can help connect you, please don’t hesitate to reach out! There are countless other nonprofits to learn about but take a moment to check out the ones below.
