Bring hope to those who need it most
You can bring hope and a smile to those who need it most.
Goodness Village provides affordable housing for patients and their families seeking medical treatment in Little Rock for various life-threatening illnesses while providing compassionate care, so they don’t feel alone during their stay.
Goodness Village volunteers give the love and care to the families we serve extend beyond the doors of their apartments and into their hearts. Volunteering with Goodness Village significantly impacts a guest’s life and their family facing a challenging and scary medical journey.
Become an integral part of what makes Goodness Village a place of healing and hope for those undergoing medical care while in Little Rock.
Because of this ministry and amazing supporters, we truly had a home away from home and saw everyday people serving us as the hands and feet of Jesus!
