News and Events

Nearly 10 percent of the population in the United States lives below the poverty line, according to Census Bureau estimates. That's why World Vision works with A New Beginning Now Distribution here in Riverside County and also in 11 major urban and rural areas in the U.S., giving hope to those in need and resources to those who are leading the way in the fight against poverty here at home. Children who lack proper clothing, personal care products, and school supplies often suffer from lowered self-esteem and classroom performance. In turn, these children are at greater risk of adopting dangerous behaviors such as skipping class, dropping out of school, becoming involved in gangs, and engaging in relationships that can lead to early sex, pregnancy, and sexually transmitted diseases.

A New Beginning Now Distribution along with Panera Bread has partnered to provide bread to families in the Coachella Valley with no strings attached.  We are able to reach more in need with the assistance of satellite stations located in low-moderate housing developments, wellness agencies and local churches.

A New Beginning Now Distribution along with WE-Partners such as World Vision Storehouse, Gifts In-Kind, works to prevent these outcomes, providing children with the basics they need--including essential household and school supplies--to reach their God-given potential.

Essentials such as clothing, shoes, personal care items, cleaning supplies and household goods help families facing poverty to meet their daily needs. When families receive these necessities through A New Beginning Now Distribution, parents are better able to budget their limited resources and provide for their children.

The Health Infants, Women and Youth Project (HIWAY) is dedicated to preventing and controlling diseases and enhancing family health through public education and the provision of services to medically underserved Coachella Valley residents.

 

HIWAY provide free to low-cost comprehensive exams, workshops and referrals to expectant mothers, infants, women and young adults.

 

THE EIGHT has partnered with First Steps Prenatal Care located at 1490 6th Street, in the City of Coachella and 34151 Date Palm Drive, Suite E, Cathedral City California, to help provide nutrition education for mother and baby. In addition, First Steps Prenatal Care provides a series of group and individual monthly classes on infant care, CPR and STDs for men and teenagers, and offers incentive toward maintaining good health practices to include Free Diapers, Prenatal Vitamins and Free Condoms in Coachella and Cathedral City, California.
