Next Club Meeting
Our next meeting will take place at the Richmond Country Club (address below) on Friday, May 10, 12:30pm.
Community Villages
Tanya Jacobs
Community Villages was established in 2019 with the interest to aid human suffering and oppression by addressing the needs of underserved communities. They saw the need to reconnect our community with human kindness.
Their initial focus was on mental health and the unhoused communities until they saw the growing need to address food insecurity and the reentry population. Their values are developed on commitment and dedication and service to those communities that often are overlooked and marginalized for essential daily needs. They aim to empower individuals and their families holistically by integrating them together by eliminating barriers that stand in their way.
