John Roberts on Mountain Mission’s Impact in the Kanawha Valley

I chat with John Roberts from Mountain Mission, an organization with nearly 100 years of history, to discuss their work helping those in need. Mountain Mission provides emergency assistance like food, housing, clothing, and furniture, focusing on faith-based support for people going through tough times. John shares how Christmas is especially significant for them, as they provide food for over 1,000 families during the holidays, helping to keep families together and create lasting memories. We also talk about the ongoing issue of food insecurity in West Virginia, with one in four children affected, and how Mountain Mission strives to offer nutritious options like fresh fruits and vegetables to those in need. It's clear that the work Mountain Mission does has a real impact on the community, and I’m grateful to learn more about their efforts to make a difference in the lives of so many in the Kanawha Valley.
