At Shepherd, we believe breaking the cycle of poverty starts with building relationships. It's about more than meeting material needs—it’s about offering hope, connection, and love. Our Executive Director, Jay Height, recently spoke with Gerry Dick on the Business & Beyond podcast about how we’re addressing food insecurity, housing, education, and more—while combating the isolation so many feel. “The epidemic that is ravaging our community is loneliness,” Jay shared. Join the conversation and learn how we’re working to create lasting change. https://lnkd.in/gDzbQBsY
