Mission: Founded in 1970, Hastings Family Service (HFS) is a community based nonprofit agency providing a range of emergency and supportive services for over 45 years. HFS assists and guides neighbors from the Hastings area who lack food, clothing, shelter, support or transportation. HFS provides help and hope in a spirit of caring and respect, knowing that unforeseen circumstances like job elimination, reduction in work hours or medical emergencies can happen to any of us at any time. The current economy has created numerous vulnerabilities, and HFS strives to help those in need find longer-term solutions while providing fulfilling opportunities for volunteers and community members to support those efforts. (Less)
