🍏 Skaggs Legacy Endowment Grant: Access to Care

✨Did you know? Charis is a Greek word that translates to grace and how fitting that this organization carries that name.

The Charis Group brings true grace to our community by offering essential transportation for underserved residents in Stone and Taney counties. Their riders include people recovering from substance use, survivors of domestic violence, seniors, individuals experiencing homelessness, and those recently released from court custody.

They provide safe, reliable rides to the places that matter most: medical appointments, social services, recovery programs, and nonprofit organizations.
By removing transportation barriers, the Charis Group helps people regain independence, strengthen their well-being, and stay connected to vital resources.

❤ A little grace goes a long way and the Charis Group is proving that every day.

We all play a role in keeping our youth safe.
Through a grant from Skaggs Foundation, Pathways Project Coalition of the Ozarks is expanding its Protecting Our Future project. This initiative is focused on raising awareness about human trafficking, strengthening online safety for youth, and connecting at-risk individuals with critical resources.

This grant helps empower our community with the knowledge and tools needed to recognize, prevent and respond to exploitation. This brings us one step closer to a safer, more supported community. 💛

😂 Nobody's Perfect - Not Even Us! 😂

We take our mission seriously... but we don't always take OURSELVES too seriously! 🎥

Check out these hilarious outtakes from our 2025 video shoots! From forgotten lines to unexpected interruptions, we had our share of "take two, three, four..." moments. 🤣

Behind every polished video is laughter, teamwork, and sometimes... complete chaos! Hit play and enjoy! We promise our grant work is WAY more professional than these clips suggest. 😉✨

🍏 Skaggs Legacy Endowment Grant: Substance Use

Can you imagine wanting help but having nowhere safe to land while you figure out your next step?
For individuals affected by substance use, stability can be the hardest thing to find at the beginning of recovery. That is why we funded The Simmering Center and their Simmering Center Respite Care project through a Skaggs Legacy Endowment Grant.
This program offers a safe, home like environment with meals, medical care and connections to recovery resources. Most importantly, it gives people the safety and support they need to focus on healing and recovery.

🍏 Skaggs Legacy Endowment Grant: Mental Health

In many rural communities throughout Stone and Taney counties, the need for mental health care often outpaces the number of providers available. Thanks to Hope Counseling Center and their Mental Health Workforce Expansion Initiative they are working to recruit mental health providers and student interns. This project helps expand access to affordable counseling across these two counties.
Thanks to a Skaggs Legacy Endowment Grant, they are helping ensure that quality mental health care is within reach of the communities who need it most. 💚
