Small Things Inc Details
Small Things is a Philadelphia-based non-profit that supports local organizations by connecting them with the resources they need to build up their communities. In 2020, Small Things sourced over 2 million pounds of food for our community partners and filled over 6,000 volunteer opportunities.OUR STARTSmall Things was first called Easter Outreach. This ministry had a very simple goal: to feed some of Philadelphia's hungriest families on Easter Sunday.In early 2010, a zip code in North Philadelphia was named the hungriest in America. Realizing that this neighborhood was right in its back yard, a team from Liberti Church East felt compelled to act. That spring, they raised some money, put an ad in the local newspaper, and gathered volunteers the day before Easter to distribute 100 dinners. While they knew this wouldn't fix Philadelphia's hunger problem, this one meal was a tangible way of celebrating the resurrection of Jesus and offering hope to friends and neighbors in need. Ten years later, Easter Outreach, led by Pastor Vito Baldini, extends throughout Philadelphia and into Chester, Norristown, and Camden, as well. In 2019, over 75 community partners and 2,000 volunteers helped distribute 10,000 Easter dinners in the greater Philadelphia areaPIVOTING DURING COVID-19When COVID-19 struck, the ministry brought together area churches, community organizations, and food providers like Philabundance to launch a rapid COVID-19 response. Having trusted relationships across the city allowed Easter Outreach to provide over 2 million meals by the end of 2020.It was clear that the organization had expanded beyond a seasonal day of service, so the name Easter Outreach was changed to Small Things. This new name reflects the fact that change often starts with one small step, one small gathering, one small sacrifice. The name recognizes that Small Things can change the world.
