Adopt-A-Block
The goal of Adopt-A-Block is to build relationships and the key to success is consistency. When Adopt-A-Block launches at a specific location, it is a promise to the community that we will be here to serve for years to come. Our commitment to the community will speak louder than anything else.
This outreach allows immediate needs of individuals to be met on a consistent basis leading to valuable relationships and a brighter future for DeSoto County. Meeting the immediate needs of the community is the fastest way to build relationships and gain influence to speak into someone’s potential. Immediate needs of the community may include: food, clothing, activities for children, and picking up trash.
