Stone Haven
Stone Haven has a mission to walk alongside survivors of sexual exploitation in their journey of healing. We believe in safety, commitment, and honesty for every woman we plan to serve. Sexual exploitation and trafficking are a real and present threat in our community. These activities happen behind closed doors, but in plain sight. We pray the perpetrators are brought to light, and the survivors find the hope that is just as real and present. Learn more at stonehavenva.org.
Village to Village
Village to Village partners with Church World Services and the local school systems to meet the immediate needs of refugee families. They provide essential things like clothing, dishes, bedding, hygiene items, and furniture, as well as toys for kids who have very little. All of these items come through donations from the local community. We partner with them by hosting their storage space at our Harrisonburg location and funding the mission.
