 YOU CAN HELP 

The road to economic independence is long and difficult to navigate, but here at West Central Missouri Community Action Agency, we know that the road can be successfully traveled with the right support systems in place. You can be a part of that support system.  Your donations support families that are working to increase their skills and better their lives.  Of course, it takes more than money to change lives; it also takes manpower.  By sharing your time and talents with our organization, you can change the life of a low-income individual in our community.

Please help us support these families and individuals as they make changes in their lives that will ultimately lead to financial independence.  Please consider these volunteer opportunities.
