Behind every free dental visit at our clinic is a team that makes neighbors feel welcome. 🦷

Today we want to say thank you to Pam McKenzie. Pam joined our dental team within the last six months, and she has already become part of the family. She shows up for our neighbors with skill and a kind word.

We also want to thank our other volunteer hygienists. They give their time and their training so uninsured adults in Calhoun County can get the care they need. We could not do this without them.

Our Adult Dental Clinic offers free teeth extractions to neighbors who have no insurance. It takes gentle hands and patient hearts, and we are blessed to have both.

Each morning that our doors are open, the Open Door Program provides simple essentials like snacks, coffee, and water for those who need a place to pause and reset for the day. For neighbors experiencing homelessness, these small gestures often mean warmth, kindness, and human connection.

We are deeply grateful to everyone who makes this ministry possible. Your continued support allows us to serve our community with care, dignity, and compassion.

Did you know Interfaith can help neighbors keep their homes, keep the lights on, and get to the pharmacy? 🧡

Meet Jill Pike. Jill leads our Emergency Assistance program, the front line of our work to prevent homelessness.

When a Calhoun County family hits an unexpected bill, Jill and her team step in to help with:

Rent
Utilities
Prescriptions
Transportation
ID and license fees

Here is how it works: come by 1431 Gurnee Avenue for an application and a short interview. Bring ID for the adults, Social Security cards for everyone in the household, and a bill or other proof of the expense. Rent and utility help is available once a year, so we can be there for as many neighbors as possible.

Questions? Call us at 256-237-1472.

85+ pieces of equipment. One very busy Thursday. 🧡

Most weeks, our Durable Medical Equipment program gives out four or five items. Neighbors donate equipment they no longer need, and we pass it on to someone who does.

Then recently a very large donation came in. We posted a list on CharityTracker, where local nonprofits coordinate help, expecting our partner agencies to refer clients.

Then someone shared it on Facebook. By Wednesday night, it had been shared about 130 times.

Thursday morning, a dozen people were looking for equipment within the first five minutes. The phones rang nonstop. Our receptionist, Sandy, fielded call after call while we ran up and down the stairs finding what each person needed.

Every person we talked with had a real need.

Hospital beds. CPAP machines. Oxygen concentrators. Walkers. Wheelchairs. Bedside commodes. Shower chairs. Cases of adult diapers and underpads.

All of it went to neighbors who needed it. After we closed that day, we took a very long nap. 😅

That one post introduced a whole new group of neighbors to this program, and to where they can donate equipment they no longer use.

Have a wheelchair, walker, shower chair, or other medical equipment sitting unused? Call us at 256-237-1472 and let’s put it back to work helping a neighbor.

Thank you to the Aylor family for their donation to Christmas Clearing House! Strollers, a chemistry lab, a bubble mower, and more will help kids in Calhoun County have something to open this December.

Want to give too? Drop toys and gifts at our Gurnee Avenue office, Monday through Thursday, 8:00 am-2:00 pm. (We are closing at 10:30 today for the dental clinic ribbon cutting.)

Yesterday, we cut the ribbon on the new home of our Free Adult Dental Clinic at Stringfellow. 🦷✂️

So many community partners and neighbors came out to celebrate with us, and we are grateful for every one of them.

This clinic started with neighbors who believed everyone deserves care. Nan Christian recruited volunteer dentists from across the county to offer free services. Martha Vandervoort carried that work forward for years. Today, it continues with the same heart.

Volunteer dentists and students from the UAB School of Dentistry work alongside our clinic to provide tooth extractions for qualified Calhoun County residents who don’t have dental insurance or can’t afford dental care. These services are free.

With this new space, we can serve even more of our neighbors.

Want to be part of it? Volunteer your time, donate supplies, or share this post with someone who needs us. Call 256-237-1472 or visit interfaithcalhoun.org.

Thank you to every volunteer, student, donor, and partner who made this move possible.

Christmas is coming to Calhoun County, and we need your help to make it happen.

Every year, Christmas Clearing House brings gifts to children in qualified low-income families. It takes hundreds of hands to get ready. We need neighbors to help us prepare for the big day and to help on distribution days.

Here is where you can pitch in:
🎁 Sorting and organizing donated gifts
🎁 Helping get gifts ready for each family
🎁 Greeting families and helping at distribution

Come by yourself, bring a friend, or sign up with your Sunday school class, family, or work team. Every hour helps a child have something to open this Christmas.

Ready to serve? Call us at 256-237-1472, and we will find the right spot for you.

Share this with someone who loves to serve.
