Loaves and Fishes

After-school programming for preK–12 youth, serving Raleigh since 1982.

Since 1982, Loaves and Fishes Ministry has been empowering under-resourced preK–12 youth for life opportunities.

They do it through out-of-school programming built on a long-term, relationally-based, holistic approach to development — one that takes the mind, body, and spirit all as part of the same child. Loaves and Fishes works with schools, nonprofits, and other community organizations to get critical support to the youth and families they serve.

On this campus they operate out of the Education Building, where they serve as an extended family to roughly 60 children each year. That looks like personalized academic help, access to technology, and enrichment activities — and, over years rather than semesters, adults who know your name and keep showing up.
