We don’t have to watch food insecurity consume America’s families. Unemployment isn’t always the cause of food insecurity, or better yet some families lack transportation or simply the time between jobs to go to the super market. The food is within reach, but we must step up and find our role in ensuring no child goes to bed with an empty stomach!

Sometimes you get a little messy when you're having fun! Chasing your God-given dream can take some creativity! And we love getting to be creative with the kiddos, playing tic-tac-toe, four square and hopscotch! Every Arkansan
At one of our sites, there is a mom of several kids that receives meals everyday. She recently had foot surgery and wasn't able to move which made it harder for her to come get the food. Over the summer, we built a relationship where she felt comfortable to pray! Pray that for God to be with her and provide for her and her family during this difficult time. It was such a gift to share the hope of Jesus with her and watching her chase her God-given dream!!!

What happens to a child at the end of the day when their promised resources from school are no longer accessible? Their lunch might be the last meal they eat that day, but it doesnt have to be.
Through your support, that gap can be filled and a child can have the nutrition needed to finish their homework and finish the day strong.

We love getting to create new and memorable experiences for our kids. We're thankful for our relationship with the LRPD Mounted Patrol. These amazing officers visited our mobile sites to educate the kids on horse safety and how they serve the community. This experience is one the kids will remember forever!
Because of 2020 and the despair and loss it has brought, many families, like this momma and her kiddos, won’t get a Christmas this year.

We believe in the power of relationships. Each week we get to go out to 16 different communities and teach about Jesus and how He wants a personal relationship with them. We love getting to see the Lord work in the lives of each kid!
Mark your calendars, Giving Tuesday is coming up on December 1st! You can support and empower others by giving back to YOUR community ❤️
Here's some of our mommas getting to shop at last year's Christmas Mall! Through this event, toys are provided to help grow and deepen relationships with families.
Will you consider helping us by donating $10 to ensure deeper relationships happen year round? everyarkansan.org/christmasmall20
Our relationships start with a kid, but they go so much deeper than that. Churches are stepping up to start their own after school programs to build relationships and support both kids and parents. Parents now know they have someone in their corner when they need support.
The kids are so eager to give their drawings to Mr. Eric every time he shows up to their neighborhood! It means the world 🌎 to Mr. Eric that they want to share their creativity with him! At Every Arkansan we're all about building long lasting relationships.
Christmas is right around the corner and we can't wait to see this same excitement on Christmas morning! You can be a part of creating a joyful memory for a child this Christmas.

Obesity and food insecurity are more prevalent among low-income populations and those who do not have the access to or the knowledge of healthy food.
We have to respond to this issue by helping provide fresh, healthy food to families who may have no other option.

There will always be a need for food.
Arkansas is ranked #2 in the amount of people going hungry and cannot get assistance from the government.
This problem may seem far away but in reality kids everywhere are struggling with food insecurity.

ONE MORE DAY!
Tomorrow is the start of Christmas Mall where churches in the communities will be able to provide families with toys for their kids on Christmas.
The Lord has been so good in providing a pathway for the church and community to be blessed.
Our mobile Christmas serving times are the best!
Not only do kids get some fun toys, but relationships are built to empower each other! They can feel encouraged to play with their friends and get to show them a little something they got for Christmas.
2 MORE DAYS!
We continue to countdown the days until Christmas Mall and there are only TWO days left!
We know churches are getting excited and so are we!
This couldn't happen without YOU!
Food insecure households have doubled since COVID-19 started. Most of these homes are families that have kids.
These households do not have access to nutritious food to feed their families every day.
This lack of consistency in a child's diet has amplified and kids are struggling more than ever. Without consistency and nutrition, kids are not only struggling physically but also mentally and cognitively.
Will you be part of the solution to provide a child with a reliable diet?

Central Church had their very own first Christmas Mall this year and they were more than excited!they served over 100 kids, providing them with toys, candy, and even some clothes.
One of the grandmas picked out toys for her 5 grandchildren she takes care of. She works full time while helping her grandchildren with their schoolwork. She barely had transportation but made sure to make it to Christmas Mall. She was able to shop with Central Church so that her grandkids could have presents Christmas morning.
The process that Central Church created started when a family member checked in at their time slot, they were connected with a personal shopper who took them to a table of toys and games their kids might like. They even had goodie bags and stocking stuffers to choose from!
Before the families left, they got their gifts wrapped by volunteers and couldn’t wait for the kiddos to open them Christmas morning!
This could not be made possible without donations and support and YOU!
IT'S NATIONAL TICKTOCK DAY!
While today is mostly created to remind us of the importance of things we haven't finished, we thought we'd celebrate with a different approach to TikTok Day.

We wanted to show a few churches of the 16 we partnered with this year to help them have their own Christmas Mall.
This is Bethesda Missionary Baptist Church led by Pastor Graham. They had an amazing Christmas Mall! Not only did they serve the 100 kids registered but also over a hundred more that came by word of mouth.
They made hotdogs in their back kitchen and passed out the hot meals to the line of cars that were wrapped around the block!
Each kid received multiple toys and some even got new bikes that were donated.
The Lord provided an abundance of toys, enough for over 300 kids to have Christmas Morning!

Ever wonder what the morning routine is like for our Arkansas Dream Center team? Take a quick look as our process of how our feeding program begins.
We are partnered with Food for Good, under the enterprise of PepsiCo.
Each morning, Food for Good brings meals to our North Little Rock location. They bring us totes of meals to serve to our communities and we exchange them for the empty totes from the day before.
These hundreds of meals go out everyday. Thank you SO much to Food for Good and PepsiCo!

At Every Arkansan, we partner with churches that have been building relationships in the community to serve others. Pastor Juan and his wife Saeda at Iglesias de Creciendo En Cristo have been able to provide meals for families and coloring supplies for kids in their community. These 2 little girls always come to our routes and received some of the coloring supply bags. They were so excited and thankful!
This is what we love to see - the church serving their communities and build relationships to chase their God-given dreams!
It's always a triumph when a kid learns something new! We are so thankful that kiddos are learning during the homework pop-ups, chasing their God-given dream

Today our AmeriCorps and ARDC team took part in MLK Day of Service and the @calibrarysystem conference and panel hearing from author of “March: Book One” by @seemybrotherdance and other national members.
It was great to recognize today and be part of a growth discussion and hear stories from so many.
We hope you will serve with us through AmeriCorps. The last day to apply is January 31st.

WAY 19!!!
It is way 19 of 21 ways YOU can make an impact in 2021!!
As you know, our Dream Center Mobile program and After School tutoring is back and happening and YOU can make an impact through them.
We invite you to volunteer with us to serve kids and families the meals we go out and provide for them everyday.
This is an amazing way to serve the community and ultimately build relationships.
If you want to know more go to everyarkansan.org/2021impact and we’ll get you connected.

It is Way 16 of the 21 Ways YOU can make an impact in 2021!
This is Trinity. She is one of our kiddos at one of our mobile sites and loves coming to our program. Everytime while playing, she would be wearing slippers that scuffed her feet until someone donated new tennis shoes that protected her feet.
There is a huge need for shoes in all the communities. So one way to impact others this year is by hosting a shoe drive so that kids like Trinity can play safely as much as she wants.
We'd love for you to get involved in getting to provide a kid with a new pair of shoes - for the winter or summertime.
Head to https://buff.ly/35JH81g to find out how to make this possible and empower a kid in 2021!
At Every Arkansan, we partner with churches that have been building relationships in the community to serve others. Pastor Juan and his wife Saeda at Iglesias de Creciendo En Cristo have been able to provide meals for families and coloring supplies for kids in their community. These 2 little girls always come to our routes and received some of the coloring supply bags. They were so excited and thankful!
This is what we love to see - the church serving their communities and build relationships to chase their God-given dreams!
It's always a triumph when a kid learns something new! We are so thankful that kiddos are learning during the homework pop-ups, chasing their God-given dream
We can't wait to see local churches do the same!! 📖😁

If you recall, back in December we sent a semi load of Funko toys to Metro Missions in NYC. Through their partnership with us along with many other churches, nearly 65,000 kids received a wrapped gift for Christmas!
Check out this testimony of a boy that was able to be blessed and get the toy he wanted when his mom wasn't able to afford it. This is just one of thousands of stories that was made possible through YOU!

WIN WEDNESDAY:
Ms. Gabrielle taught a lesson on the promises of God.
The kids got to drop eggs to represent how peoples' promises can be dropped like a broken egg falling on the ground and cracking.
God holds on tightly to his promises and never lets them fall like we do. The kids learned how there are over 8,000 promises of God in the Bible and we can count on him to fulfill every one.

Central Arkansas Library System donated to the kids at our routes bags with a notebook, crayons, a frisbee, bubbles, and more.
One of their workers also went door to door with us to tell our parents about the feeding programs the library has to offer close to their houses.

“Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.”

God is the true source of happiness, strength, hope, and wisdom. Those who are in His favor will always have these things!!! 😁👏
We are at the start of a new year and though 2020 was long and difficult, rejoice despite the battles because Jesus reigns King.

Please be in prayer for the families in our community. The weather here is severe and only getting worse.
Many of them have lost heat, water, electricity and may not have much food.
Our teams are calling the families to check on them and we are planning on ways to get to them tomorrow to provide food and other essential items.
We’ve gotten calls today from families we’ve connected with and one we are trying to find shelter for a family of 8 kids.
Please pray for all of the families and our teams as they do all they can to help.
It might be cold and icy, but we are still going to serve those kids and families!
Most kids are out of school and maybe working at home so aren't able to get the meals they'd usually get at school. This is when hope can truly be provided during the hard weather.

Everywhere we go we see obstacles from a kid struggling in school or acting out because they may not feel well. One factor can be they don't have hygiene supplies.
We are able to pass these out as a way to build a relationship with the kids and give them their confidence back.
When kids feel confident and energized, they are more inclined to thrive. They start to feel refreshed and clean and ready to tackle the day!
We are so thankful for the love and generosity going on in the lives Mr. Hal impacted. He always encouraged others to chase their God given dream.
The Magic Food Bus has offered to donate a percentage of their March proceeds in honor of Mr. Hal. Thank you again.

For March we want to Honor a Man that deserves a huge shout out for the many things he did while walking on this earth. Hal Halcomb, the most compassionate man I have ever met. He had a passion for serving. To help someone else in need. A great man of God. He will be missed.
To Honor Hal Halcomb we will be donating a portion of our sales to Dream Center in his name. This will help with funeral expenses or anything to honor his name with Arkansas Dream Center.
When you book with The Magic Food Bus Co. your helping a small family business continue to make a difference in the lives of others. We actually do a happy dance. We appreciate your continued support and hope you will come see us and try our delicious food. If you aren’t able to come see us feel free to donate directly to the organization. everyarkansan.org - because ARDC is part of our organization Every Arkansan.
Here are details for Mr. Hal's visitation which is tonight and the service happening tomorrow. Please keep his family in your prayers.
With heavy hearts, we still carry so much joy of celebrating the life of Mr. Hal — a man that loved the Lord with all his heart, and lived it out in every way.
We are so thankful for his service to the Arkansas Dream Center, this past decade. If you knew Hal well you knew he was an amazing cook. He had prepared many meals that comforted those experiencing homelessness, that gave security to a kid that didn’t know where his next meal was coming from, and gave joy and conversation to strangers who became lifelong friends.
Mr. Hal, not only was a great cook he was such a consistent man. He’d always be there. He loved the people he was able to serve, and he never allowed anything to get in the way.
He will be greatly missed! But his legacy lives on in the lives of everyone he met. We hope that we can continue to show up and provide like Mr. Hal always did!
Today we popped up the tent and had a little shopping day for the parents on our routes.
Clothes given from @platoscloset_nlr and @clothesmentorlr so that parents can feel empowered as they receive some new clothing for Easter. We will be doing this each Monday this month.

COVID has restricted some kids going to school or having to do their work online which can cause them to fall behind. We want to make sure they are able to keep up with their work and succeed.

Tears rolled down her eyes....
A young mother of five had been having a hard time providing for her and her children. So flashback to Christmas, Powerhouse of Deliverance blessed her children with toys like bikes from @cityservearkansas HUB.
This took a huge weight off of the mom, knowing her kids toys to play with and having supplies to take care of her house.
What is a need you might have or know anyone have?
Every week, on the Mobile routes, the team teaches a Bible lesson through visual aids and experiments.
This week's lesson demonstrated Moses and the Israelites crossing the Red Sea.
To teach it this week, the team did a fun science experiment:
1. They poured some water onto a plate to illustrate the sea
2. They sprinkled some pepper on the water
3. They put a drop of soap over the water and instantly the pepper dispersed.
This represents:
1. The huge Red Sea that Moses and the Israelites came across
2. The Egyptians chasing after them to where they were trapped at the sea.
3. God tells Moses to lift his hand over the water and it spreads.
This is the story of God protecting and delivering his people from harm.
The Top Truth for kids to take away is: GOD PROTECTS HIS PEOPLE
Let's celebrate Dream Day 2021! Everyone has a dream and you are never too old to chase and fulfill your God given dream. Or even guide others to chase theirs'.
Dream Day is the day where you can dream and build on your dream and ways to turn it into reality.
Here at Every Arkansan, that is our vision - for every Arkansan to chase their God given dream. We help see that happen through our AR Dream Center Mobile and homework programs and through CityServe empowering and resourcing churches to serve their communities.
The big question is what is YOUR dream?
While it’s a little different than before, this is what our after school Little Rock program looks like.

A book can be empowering and grow the imagination. Majority of the kids that we reach don’t have any books at home or the ones they read are hard to understand because of their reading level.
A couple months ago @calli_sparrowandlilies reached out to us with a heart to give serve.
She is a mom, teacher, and a rep for Ubone books and decided to raise funds to purchase BRAND NEW books for the kids in our LR program to take home & keep!
They are incredible books, in English and Spanish that are both educational and fun.
These kiddos not only got to have a brand new book of their own but they will surely keep their imagination rolling and eager to learn.

Have you ever thought about knitting?
There was a volunteer who knitted over 25 hats and scarves for the kids on our mobile sites. Since the weather here in Arkansas tends to do what it wants, whenever it gets chilly again or if someone's heat goes out, the kiddos won't have to worry about being cold.
Maybe you love to knit or make goody bags, maybe you want to get your family involved in giving. We'd love to hear your ideas and help serve others!

Jesus came to save. ⠀
Today is Palm Sunday and we celebrate Palm Sunday as the week ⠀
before the day of Easter - the day we celebrate Jesus rising from the grave.⠀
⠀
"On the next day, when the large crowd that had come to ⠀
the feast heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem, ⠀
they took the branches of the palm trees and went out to meet Him, ⠀
and began shouting, “Hosanna! Blessed is He who comes in the name⠀
of the Lord, indeed, the King of Israel!” ⠀
Jesus, finding a young donkey, sat on it; as it is written: ⠀
“Do not fear, daughter of Zion; behold, your King is coming, ⠀
seated on a donkey’s colt.”⠀
John 12:12-15

Pop up shop day!
Racks upon racks of donated women’s clothing from
@platoscloset_nlr
@clothesmentornlr
& @clothesmentorlr were given to women on our mobile routes.
Each Monday this month, we went to our sites & set up racks of clothes for them to come and shop at no cost. They were so excited that we were constantly refilling the racks!
BUT not only did they get something for themselves but also blessed their sisters, daughters, or moms. Isn’t that incredible?!
Do you have an idea or interest in getting involved like this to serve? Let us know and we’d love to get connected!
We are hiring for summer!⠀
