Community Caring and Sharing is a not-for-profit organization
that focuses on community needs that historically have not been
met by government or government-funded agencies. Founded
over twenty years ago by a small group of housewives,
Community Caring and Sharing (CCS) first focused on providing
food and clothing to needy families in the near south-side
community of Mars Hill. Today, CCS continues to provide food
and clothing to needy families not only in the Mars Hill area, but
also to families referred to CCS by townships, county agencies
and churches throughout greater Indianapolis. Additionally, CCS
partnering with The Indianapolis Foundation, provides free
educational programs and for over fifteen years CCS has assisted
the local Marine Corp. unit with its Toys for Tots program by
identifying and screening needy families and by distributing the
appropriate toys to each family. CCS for many years operated
out of small, make-shift facilities, such as a church basement,
storage units, and a converted residence. In 2000, a successful
Indianapolis business man, Eldon Palmer, generously donated to
CCS a brick two-story, former school building at 2830 S. Holt
Road, in the Mars Hill area. After renovation of the building,
CCS moved into it in 2002. Renovation of the building is ongoing
with the assistance of Mr. Palmer, his business associates,
local trade unions and other community-minded organizations
and citizens who choose to make a difference.
