Circles works to help families overcome poverty by increasing their support systems, education, job skills, income, and financial literacy. Those in the program go through a 12-week course before being paired with a mentor, or ally, who works with them for up to two years as they build themselves up, set goals, and break through the barriers that hold them down. 

Cohorts meet each week to learn more, discuss their challenges, progress, and breakthroughs, and enjoy a meal together as we congratulate each other on the progress being made. 

We would love to have you join us in providing a meal for these families working hard to better their lives. We have two groups that meet each week, one on Mondays, and the other on Thursdays. See the rest of this listing for details about how you can get involved! 

Enjoy working with kids? Want to make a difference in the lives of low-income children and their families? Come be a part of Circles and support families in your community who are overcoming poverty!

Our weekly meetings in Clearfield and Centerville host classes and individualized support teams to empower individuals in setting goals and making life changes.

Children are taught and develop friendships with each other and volunteers in a safe environment. We make a positive difference in their lives by providing learning opportunities, routine, and much-needed friendship. Our children's program wouldn’t be possible without fun and nurturing volunteers! Join us for two and a half hours, once a week for a free dinner and an opportunity to make a difference in the lives of children!
