Our Mission
Supporting Churches to Help Lives and Communities Change.
Love INC of Cuyahoga County exists to mobilize local churches to help lives and communities change in the Name of Christ.
We do this by connecting people in need with churches, volunteers, and trusted community resources that can respond with care.
How It All Began
Our history goes back over 40 years. Love INC was first developed in 1977 in Holland, Michigan. The concept was created to help churches be more effective in meeting needs. Love INC is now a national movement with 122 affiliates, mobilizing 5,494 churches in 29 states and in Kenya!
“The church must be the hope of the world” - Virgil Gulker, Founder of Love INC
How Love INC Connects Neighbors With Help.
When someone reaches out for support, Love INC listens, verifies the need, and connects them with the right church, agency, class, or resource. This process helps local churches respond with care while reducing duplicated efforts and making sure each neighbor is treated with dignity.
With Love INC
Love INC fosters collaboration and organizes holistic care to help churches serve their neighbors through resources and relationships. By networking churches together, each church is able to lean into their strengths, knowing that their neighbors will be cared for by the body of Christ within their community.
Without Love INC
Churches serve their communities in different ways. One area may have a financial literacy program, while another has housing assistance. Yet, when care is not coordinated, needs can be overlooked or duplicated, and people are not served in a holistic manner.
