Stories

Being able to reach out and have someone want to help you, in a kind, professional way makes you feel like a person. Which can be difficult when there is so much stacked against you. The impact is huge.
Emily & StevenCSC Clients
Your help has saved me from a very real threat of homelessness. In a time when so many ARE homeless, you stepped in and made all the difference in my life, for which I and my service animals are eternally grateful.
AnonymousCSC Client
This organization feeds people, helps with housing, keeps them warm, and many other services, but the most important thing is how they make each individual person feel they are heard and have value.
PattyCSC Client
I am a single mom of 6 and I normally work 50+ hours a week. Not only was I assisted beyond anything I could imagine, I was also given a sense of relief by the compassion for what they do.
SuzannaCSC Client
With COVID affecting everyone, CSC has given us at North Santiam Gleaners, an opportunity to give to others a feeling of safety and security. CSC has been there to help all those in need.

I lost everything a few years ago. My gratitude for your assistance is abundant. Thank you.

I was under so much stress as the bills kept going higher and higher. Thank you so much for your financial assistance, words don’t express how much I appreciate it.

At CSC, I found all the help I needed and more. The hurdles they helped me jump that led to my accomplishments changed my whole life.
CSC Board Member
CSC has been a part of my life for almost two decades. At first, I was a participant. Now, I have found meaningful work with Gleaners and sit on the CSC Community Action Advisory Council.

It brought tears to my eyes and much needed relief. I've been assisted beyond my expectations and it has saved my life.
