Hazel Park Learning Center has been a cherished ministry within our church, providing high-quality early childhood education and care to families in our community. Though the center is closing, we continue to hold its mission and impact close to our hearts. As part of our special offering, we are raising funds to assist with the center’s closing costs and to honor the vital role it played in supporting children, families, and early learning on the East Side of St. Paul.

Interfaith Action’s School Tools program helps ensure that every child starts the school year with the supplies they need to succeed. By collecting and distributing backpacks filled with grade-appropriate school supplies, the program supports thousands of students from low-income families across the Twin Cities. School Tools partners with faith communities, businesses, and volunteers to give kids a confident start and ease the financial burden on families.
