The heart of Lending To The Lord Corp. began with a simple but powerful question from a 4-year-old named Gracey.
While driving with her family, Gracey noticed individuals lying on the ground under bridges and along sidewalks. With the innocence and compassion only a child can have, she asked, “Why don’t they have beds?” That question sparked what would become a life-changing mission. Her mother lovingly explained that while they couldn’t provide beds, they could offer warmth. That conversation led to the launch of "The Warmth of Grace" —a play on the meaning of Gracey's name to show compassion to others and the desire to want to "Blanket Others in Grace" which would become a community-driven effort that would mark the beginning of something much greater.
With the support of her school, church, family, and friends, Gracey began collecting blankets. Hundreds poured in through word of mouth and community generosity. Gracey and her family partnered with their local church, The Hills Church, to distribute every blanket to those facing winter without shelter. What started as a child’s compassionate idea quickly became a growing force for good.
Years after that first blanket drive, Gracey and her friend made the selfless decision to celebrate their high school graduation day not with a party, but by serving those experiencing homelessness. They used their own money to prepare and deliver meals to those in need. What began as a few meals quickly grew into hundreds—revealing the magnitude of the need and deepening their commitment to serve.
From this continued passion, Lending To The Lord Corp. was born—officially recognized as a tax-exempt 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization by the U.S. government.
Today, Lending To The Lord Corp. exists to serve those with extreme needs by providing warm meals, blankets, hygiene products, clothing, and most of all—hope. We are grounded in faith, led by compassion, and driven by the belief that every person deserves to feel seen, cared for, and loved.
Your support helps us continue this mission—one act of kindness at a time.
