MISSION AND HISTORY
ProJeCt of Easton's mission is to build a better community by helping people help themselves. We prepare people to succeed in work, school, and life by providing support and instruction in the skills needed to break the cycle of poverty and achieve their goals.
In 1968, an unprecedented coalition of Protestant, Jewish, and Catholic community leaders joined hands with a shared belief in the potential for positive change. They ignited a movement, a collective effort to alleviate poverty and drive meaningful impact. Today, we carry forward their legacy by embracing an unwavering commitment to our community by providing services that impact more than 5,000 people each year.
