Hunger & Homelessness

Outreach

Hunger & Homelessness

SouthPark Church has formed strategic partnerships with several ministries around Charlotte to end hunger and homelessness in our community. We believe these organizations serve as the catalyst for systemic change to fight and end hunger and homelessness within the Queen City and serve as a model for other cities around the world.

You can join us as we fight to end homelessness in Charlotte and provide food for the hungry locally and globally. Have a question? Connect with us at info@southparkchurch.com or 704.366.9166.

Roof Above Day Services Center

The Roof Above Day Services Center has been blessed to be partners with SouthPark Church for  many years. The church’s commitment through Room In the Inn, volunteering, and financial gifts has provided a path from the street to home for so many of our neighbors.”
 - Dale Mullennix, Executive Director

Roof Above (RA) Day Services Center is an interfaith organization dedicated to bringing the community together to end homelessness, one life at a time. RA serves as a point of entry to services offered by a network of agencies that work closely together to provide necessary opportunities for our Charlotte homeless population. RA is unyielding in helping Charlotte’s most vulnerable homeless neighbors.

Our church supports RA in the following ways:

Daily Soup Kitchen

Soup and sandwiches are prepared at the
Urban Ministry Center and served to
approximately 250 guests daily. SouthPark
provides volunteers the first Monday of each
month from 8:30 AM to 12:30 PM.

Room In The Inn

We have hosted  12 homeless men in our previous church building and at St Andrews UMC once a week during December through March.  Men are given a hot dinner, hot breakfast, and a bag lunch to take with them along with showers and sleeping accommodations. Our volunteers sign up for various roles including meal prep, eating with the men, clean-up and transportation. We are looking to begin this program in our new church facility this year or next.

ROOF ABOVE EMERGENCY SHELTER

SouthPark Church has provided dinner once a month at the Roof Above Emergency Shelter for the last 30 years. Dinner is purchased, prepared and served for both the Tryon Street Shelter and the Howard Levine Shelter each month. Come join our fun serving line!

The Roof Above Emergency Shelter’s mission is to provide safe emergency shelter while working to end homelessness for each man, and to serve as the catalyst for systemic change to end homelessness in our community. They operate two emergency shelters with over 400 beds.

Their work begins through the basic needs of shelter meals, showers, laundry services, hygiene items, and access to a supportive staff. Embedded in one of the two shelters is a Wellness Wing comprised of organizational partnerships to provide counseling for substance abuse, mental illness, and physical healthcare services.

Our church supports Roof Above Emergency Shelter in the following ways:

Men’s Shelter Dinner

Food is purchased and prepared by our SouthPark Church cooking team and then served by serving line volunteers. It takes 3-4 volunteers to make this happen every third Monday of the month. Commitment is from 5:30 - 7:00 PM. No prior experience necessary. Must be 18 years or older. Masks required.
