A note from Pastor Gary Simons, President of Cornerstone Foundation...
As I have traveled throughout the world, I have been struck with the plight of many people, from extreme poverty and uncertain living conditions to orphaned children and malnutrition. While eradication of many of these situations requires huge budgets, there are some things that simply require a heart - and a hand.
Webster describes compassion as "sorrow for the sufferings of others, with the urge to help." Compassion combines the heart and the hand, which is what Cornerstone Foundation is prepared to do - to extend a hand from the heart.
The programs that you will see offered by Cornerstone Foundation all begin in the heart as a concern for our fellow man, whether that concern is for an orphan, an at-risk youth, or a senior. By putting compassion in action, our intent is to improve the quality of life for seniors, for adults, for teens and for children through improved living conditions, educational programs, or shelter. The programs extend a hand to seniors who need minor alterations to their homes in order to improve the quality of their lives. The programs offer education and training to caretakers in need of further expertise when dealing with at-risk youth. The programs also offer various programs to the orphans that will enhance their education and their citizenship
