Winter Blessing Backpacks Is Coming Soon!
November 2024
Summer Blessing Backpack Drive: August 10 & 11, 2024
We had a wonderful weekend and a great turnout for blessings all around. In cooperation with One Church Sacramento and Central International Fellowship (CIF), Josh’s Heart assembled and distributed over 200 Blessing Backpacks filled with grooming essentials, summer items such as sunglasses and a ball cap, snacks and bottled waters. We also included Narcan nasal sprays and Fentanyl test strips. We also included 200 bagged lunch with two hot dogs, chips, and a cookie. We went out to the streets in south Sacramento to bless those on the streets. We had people join us at CIF to just rest and talk with volunteers. Click HERE to view photos from the event.
We are still in need of funding to purchase items for future Blessing Backpacks (click link below) or, you can visit our Amazon Wish list at: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/2FHSWN4H6IJ5Z/ref=hz_ls_biz_ex?
Our Mission is Two-Fold:
We desire to bring hope, love, and help to those afflicted by addiction and homelessness. In a world where those suffering can feel invisible, we have made it our mission to let them know that they matter.
“You Matter!”
We want to bring awareness to our community that everyone has a story, everyone matters, and tragic circumstances can happen to anyone. Josh’s Heart is for him. We created Josh’s Heart, Inc. to help others who are homeless and addicted because that was his heart, Josh’s Heart.
Josh Was Always a Sweet-Hearted, Sensitive Boy
Josh was a sensitive soul, who struggled with insecurities his whole life. He battled with low self-esteem, mild learning disabilities, and depression. He had a heart for the homeless and literally would cry at times when he saw them. In his teenage years, he tried alcohol, along with many others, and unfortunately this became his way to feel better. Alcohol first became his coping mechanism but quickly turned into an addiction.
What We Are DoingHow You Can Help
Giving 365
Help us to make a difference for those who feel cast aside and worthless due to their current circumstances. In a world where those suffering can feel invisible, we have made it our mission to let them know, “You Matter.”
Josh's Heart Homeless Connect
Our first Homeless Connect event on August 12, 2023, was a resounding triumph, and we are eager to replicate and exceed that success. The success of the inaugural Homeless Connect in 2023 inspires the team to continue supporting those in need. Our friends living on the streets deserve a day filled with rest, services, and joy. If we can provide them with one day of happiness during the year, then we are indeed making a positive difference.
