Blessings Delivered

Blessings Delivered is a mobile-intensive ministry that focuses on delivering fresh groceries and clean clothes throughout the greater Austin area directly to people’s front doors. This ministry was born out of a desire to deliver physical, emotional, and spiritual support for our patrons who are unable to travel. The focus is on two primary demographics: people with disabilities and those experiencing homelessness. Our delivery teams work weekly to ensure their needs are met.

Our Challenge

  4,600

  people in Austin are experiencing homelessness, with the number steadily rising each year.

  19%

of Austin's population qualifies as having a disability, with many recognized as being homebound.

  7.4%

  increase in the number of Austin residents who have found themselves without housing since 2022.

Our Response

Blessings Delivered has one primary goal: to bring provision and the love of God to our community members who are living in the margins. To accomplish our goal, this ministry transports fresh food, clean clothes, and a warm smile to every individual that we serve in a mobile-focused fashion. We want to engage folks who are homebound or who are experiencing homelessness, right at their front door.

Whether you struggle to leave home or simply don’t know where to call home, Blessings Delivered strives to meet the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of those suffering in our city. With our very own Blessings Delivered refrigerated van, lots of good food and clothes to distribute, and hearts willing to serve, we believe that we can do as Christ called us – to bring the Kingdom near each and every week.

Our Impact

What We Love About Blessings Delivered

"At Blessings Delivered, we are proud to create a venue for our volunteers to bring provision to folks living on the margins. We focus on meeting people right where they are, wherever they are. We love the opportunity to engage with patrons on a personal level and share in weekly time together as we continue to serve their needs through food, clothing, and spiritual support."

Get Involved

Blessings Delivered relies entirely on volunteer roles to achieve all that we do. This includes roles such as loading and unloading the Blessings Delivered van, patron check-in, food distribution, prayer team, and a general desire to love on our neighbors who are experiencing homelessness or are homebound. We could not possibly do what we do without the faithful service of our volunteers, and we hope you will join us as we continue to build a community of kindness.

Volunteer

“Blessings Delivered is a wonderful way for volunteers to engage with Austin community members on their own turf. I have enjoyed getting to know patrons of Blessings Delivered on a personal and relational level while serving with the delivery team.”
