Harvest Fest

Metropolitan Dream Center’s 20th Annual Harvest Fest is fast approaching. This event has always been a blessing to the many homeless and less fortunate families as we meet the needs with hot meals, coats, clothes, shoes, socks, underwear, toiletries, and more. Last year in 2022, MDC provided services to over 1300 indigent individuals/families.

Metropolitan Dream Center’s horizon has broadened to include Eswatini, Africa where poverty is “out of control.” Many children are without shoes, proper clothing and food. They are unable to attend school due to the lack of funds. We are excited to partner and make an impact on “poor communities” from afar as we continue striving to make a difference in the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex.

Please consider monetary donations, turkeys, hams etc. The needs list has been provided below. For further information, please contact me at 469.206.0226 or 214.916.0623.

Blessings,

Margaret James, Executive Director

We are the good neighbor reaching out into the larger community to find those in need of some very basic supplies and in need of spiritual development or revitalization.
