Why Choose Us
Each member of our highly skilled, educated, and compassionate team came to The Mary and Martha Center hoping to make a genuine difference in the lives of the women and families in their community. Our story is humble: We started as a group of entrepreneurial women who wanted to make a difference in our community. We see ourselves as servant leaders, and we do not serve in search of fame and power.
We serve the underprivileged and marginalized-young and old-hoping to support, empower, and educate women locally and globally. One life, one family, one gesture of kindness at a time, and you can move an inch toward goodness. Inches make feet, feet make miles, and miles connect our communities in the world.
