✂️ Calling All Barbers & Hairstylists!

IAM is hosting a Back-to-School Haircut Clinic and we need YOU! We're providing local kids in need with new clothes and shoes, and we want to top it off with a fresh cut to match.

If you're a barber or hairstylist, we'd love for you to donate a few hours of your time and talent on August 5th from 3–6 PM at Grace Lutheran Church in Hendersonville. Bring your tools and help kids walk into the first day of school feeling confident and cared for.

An in-kind donation letter will be provided for all haircuts donated.
📅 August 5th | 🕒 3:00–6:00 PM
📍 Grace Lutheran Church – 1245 6th Ave W, Hendersonville, NC 28739

🌟 Continuing our Volunteer Appreciation Week, meet our Volunteer of the Year, Vera Anders!

Vera has been with IAM since 2009, volunteering nearly five days a week across countless roles. She came to IAM through a family member who needed help during an incredibly hard time, and instead of just saying thank you, she rolled up her sleeves and never left.

Over 15 years later, that family member's children are in and graduating from college. And Vera is still here, still smiling, still one of the first faces we see every morning.
Thank you, Vera, and enjoy your brand new reserved parking space! 🚗

¡Queremos escuchar de USTEDES! 📣

If your family could benefit from our Back-to-School Assistance this summer, please take a moment to fill out our short form. Every child already receives a new outfit, underwear, socks, and shoes. But we are looking at what else we might be able to add this year, and your input will help guide that decision.
Tell us what your child needs most. Your voice matters and we are listening. 💙

Si su familia puede beneficiarse de nuestra Ayuda de Regreso a Clases este verano, por favor tómese un momento para llenar nuestro formulario corto. Cada niño ya recibe un conjunto nuevo, ropa interior, calcetines y zapatos. Pero estamos viendo qué más podemos agregar este año, y su opinión nos ayudará a decidir.
Díganoos qué es lo que más necesita su hijo. Su voz importa y estamos escuchando. 💙

We could never fully put into words how much our volunteers mean to us, but we're going to try! 🎉 We're kicking off our first Volunteer Appreciation Week, and we are so proud of our volunteers, that we're making it a monthly thing.

A huge shoutout to two incredible groups from last week:

🙌Lutheran Disaster Response in the Carolinas sent down a group of students from Trinity Academy of Raleigh who came and jumped right in, serving in both our pantry and clothing departments. You guys were amazing!

🫶 Biltmore Church, thank you for your generous donation of backpacks for our upcoming back to school events AND for treating our staff to lunch. You blessed us in more ways than one!

And that's just the beginning, scroll through to see even more of the wonderful volunteers who gave their time and hearts to our community. We truly could not do this without you. 💙

What an incredible night we had Thursday! 💙
Our Compassion in Action Annual Fundraiser was everything we hoped for and more. A beautiful evening filled with gratitude, inspiration, and a powerful reminder of why this work matters.

We celebrated our Volunteer of the Year, Vera Anders, and honored the incredible Bruce Holliday, as he moves on to his next chapter. Two very special people and we cant wait to share more about them soon 🌟

A huge shoutout to Mark & Paige from WTZQ Radio for kicking off the night perfectly, and to Bird Bartlett and Duke Domingue of Duke Says Sold for bringing so much energy to the auction. We could not have done it without you! 🎙️

To our donors, sponsors, volunteers, and supporters who made the night possible, thank you. We are so grateful for this community and the lives we get to change together. 💙
