Be a Helping Hand in Times of Crisis
Every day, neighbors in our community walk through our doors facing eviction, utility disconnections, or other urgent financial crises. Through the Crisis Assistance Network, we work to prevent homelessness and help families stay safe, warm, and housed. But we can’t do it alone.
As a Crisis Assistance Volunteer, you’ll play a vital role in helping low-income individuals and families access emergency support. Volunteers assist with greeting clients, gathering information, organizing documentation, and supporting staff in connecting clients to critical resources like rent, utility, and prescription assistance.

Putting God’s Love Into Action
Rowan Helping Ministries is a continuation of Rowan Cooperative Christian Ministry, a ministry begun in 1967 by several of Salisbury’s downtown churches. Rowan Helping Ministries was incorporated as a 501(c)(3) non- profit organization September 18, 1986. At that time, the Shelter rotated among several of the downtown churches and only operated during the winter months. The Soup Kitchen was provided by First Presbyterian Church and Crisis Assistance Network worked out of John Calvin Presbyterian Church. The Clothing Center was at the old Price High School building and Dial Help, incorporated in November 1970, was in the basement of Tri-County Mental Health. In December 1989, all of these programs moved to 226 North Long Street and became a part of Rowan Helping Ministries.
Our programs include: the Shelter, Jeannie's Kitchen, Clothing Center, Food Pantry, Crisis Assistance Network, Transitional Housing Programs, Rowan Helping Ministries-West, and New Tomorrows. In August of 2017, Food For Thought- a weekend backpack program which provides meals to food insecure children- came under the umbrella of Rowan Helping Ministries programs & services, as well. We rely on 45-50 volunteers daily, and without them, Rowan Helping Ministries wouldn't be possible.
