Who we serve

You, or someone you know, at some time in your life, have experienced a financial and/or personal crisis,
that turned your world upside down.

You may have been able to turn to family or friends to help support you. But what happens to people who aren’t so fortunate?

In 1985, twenty churches in Georgetown answered the question, “Am I my brother’s keeper?” with “Yes we are.”  The Caring Place was created to answer that question with direct action.  We provide emergency assistance to individuals and families in crisis in the form of financial assistance, food assistance and clothing assistance. We also provide case management services and community education programs.  

	Volunteers working our food pantry

We are a community based nonprofit 501(c)(3) social service agency that is 100% supported by the Williamson County community.   The support comes from volunteers (who deliver the services), donations of goods (clothing, food, and household goods sold in our store, Fabulous Finds), and donations of cash  (100% goes directly to client services). This support enables The Caring Place to help thousands of people each year.
