At Circle Urban Ministries, our impact is rooted in a simple but powerful belief: that every person is created in the image of God and deserves access to opportunity, dignity, and hope. For over five decades, we’ve taken on the most pressing challenges facing our community—failing schools, housing insecurity, food deserts, addiction, and violence—not with band-aid solutions, but with lasting, systemic change. Our campus has become a beacon of restoration, where families find stability, children thrive in safe schools, and neighbors are treated with compassion and respect.
Today, Circle serves more than 17,000 people annually, generates over $50 million in community resources, and stands as proof that faith combined with action changes everything. From a school that graduates 97% of its 8th graders on time, to a recovery home where women and children find healing, to a food pantry feeding over 1,000 people a month—we are not just meeting needs, we are restoring futures.
Each building on our campus plays a role in transforming lives. Together, they create a ripple effect that reaches across generations. Here’s what that impact looks like:
