The People's Budget
your voice, your choice
Faith Over Fear HHI has been providing free hot meals with a mobile kitchen, as well as mentoring youth and assisting adult men in transition for over five years. These programs are run primarily by our founder, Reddics Johnson, who supports the non-profit organization with his own income from a lawn-cleaning business. We wish to free up Reddics by providing a stipend. This would allow him to devote himself full-time to his mission of much-needed service in our community.
