For 40 years, Midtown Assistance Center has been powered by volunteers 💙

And during National Volunteer Month, we’re celebrating the people who make everything we do possible.

From helping families stay in their homes…
to stocking shelves in our food pantry…
to showing up with compassion when it matters most—

Our volunteers are the heart of MAC.

Because of you, neighbors in crisis find stability, hope, and a path forward.

THANK YOU for being part of 40 years of impact 🙌
