Staff Highlight — Meet David.

If something needs to get done at C.A.R.E. Services, chances are David is already on it.

As our Warehouse Coordinator, David does a little bit of everything — and he means that. Coordinating volunteers, managing deliveries, overseeing distribution, handling intake — whatever the day calls for, David shows up for it. He is the kind of person who keeps the operation running smoothly behind the scenes so that our neighbors never feel the gaps.

But what stands out most about David isn't just his work ethic. It's why he does it. He genuinely cares about the people on the other end of every box packed and every delivery made. That comes through in everything he does.

And here's the thing — David could use more hands.

Our volunteers are the backbone of what makes C.A.R.E. Services possible, and we are always looking for individuals, teams, and organizations who want to be part of this work. Whether you can give a few hours a week or one Saturday a month, there is a place for you here alongside David and the rest of our incredible team.

Sign up to volunteer at www.careservicestx.org — we'd love to have you.

We ♥ our volunteers and It's not just something we put above the door. We mean it.

Some of our volunteers have been with us for years. They show up quietly, do the work, and leave knowing their neighbors are a little better off than before. No fanfare needed. That's just who they are.

To every single person who has given their time, their energy, and their heart to C.A.R.E. Services — thank you. You are seen, you are valued, and this community would not be the same without you.

And if you've ever thought about volunteering — the door is open. Literally.

If you've been struggling to keep up with your utility bills, we want you to meet Crystal.

Crystal Woodard is our Client Services Representative at CARE Services — and she is the person who helps Ellis County neighbors keep the lights on, the heat running, and the air conditioning going when it matters most. She knows this process inside and out, and she is ready to walk you through every step of your application to get you the assistance you need.

No one should have to choose between keeping the power on and putting food on the table. That's exactly why Crystal is here.

If you or someone you know needs help with an electric bill, don't wait — reach out today.

Have you planned your world tour yet?

The Around the World Tour: Waxahachie Giving Cup is coming — and it's one of the most fun ways to support your community we've ever been a part of. With the FIFA World Cup right here in DFW, Waxahachie is celebrating in true Ellis County fashion: by dining out for a cause.

Here's how it works — grab your passport, visit participating local restaurants and venues, experience global flavors right here in downtown Waxahachie, catch some World Cup energy along the way, and know that every stop you make benefits C.A.R.E. Services and the neighbors we serve every day.

Good food. Great community. And a cause worth showing up for.

Start planning your tour and get all the details here:

And learn more about the work your dining out supports at www.careservicestx.org.

Today is more than a day off. It's a day to stop and remember the men and women who gave their lives so that we could have ours.

We are grateful beyond words for their courage, their sacrifice, and the families who carry that loss every single day — not just today.

From our entire C.A.R.E. Services family, thank you. You are not forgotten.

Compassion is more than part of our name. It is the heart of what happens at CARE Services every single day.

The people in this photo are neighbors serving neighbors. Week after week, they show up ready to work because they believe every family who comes through our doors deserves to be met with dignity, kindness, and care. No recognition needed. Just people with willing hands and hearts committed to this community.

That is what makes CARE Services special. It is ordinary people choosing to make a real difference right here in Ellis County.

And there is always room for more people who want to be part of that impact. Whether you have a few hours to give, want to serve alongside friends or coworkers, or are simply looking for a meaningful way to give back, there is a place for you here.

Come serve with us. Learn more and sign up to volunteer at www.careservicestx.org
