Join us for an inspiring and practical presentation from Rebecca Taylor and Barb Williams, Co-founders of SERVE GR, a local movement uniting churches, businesses, and individuals to make a lasting impact in the greater Grand Rapids area. Powered by a food truck that serves free, hot meals to underserved communities and a one-of-a-kind platform that allows people to meet real community needs in real time, SERVE GR is doing something different.
SERVE GR exists to spread joy through doing good, mobilizing people to meet real needs while sharing the hope and love of Jesus in tangible ways. During this session, you’ll hear stories of transformation from across our city, learn how collaboration between faith and business communities is changing lives, and discover how your business, family, or team can be part of it.
This isn’t just about volunteering, it’s about purpose, partnership, and creating a ripple effect of good that strengthens our city from the inside out. Whether through team serve days, sponsorships, or hands-on community projects, there’s a meaningful place for you to get involved.
Together, let’s build a community where generosity, faith, and business work hand in hand to bring hope and lasting change.
