About Us Thermal Belt Outreach Ministry is nestled within the Blue Ridge Mountains of Western North Carolina in the town of Columbus. We are located just above the South Carolina border near Landrum, South Carolina. Outreach serves families residing in Polk County North Carolina that are in crisis and need assistance with day-to-day necessities such as, food, heat, and housing.
Since 1991, Outreach has served with caring hearts and helping hands to meet the needs of countless people in crisis. Many of those in need come to us because they are in a short-term crisis and find that they are unable to pay the electric bill, buy food for their children and family or perhaps need emergency housing until a more permanent home can be found. Low-income and
poverty often accompany those we serve and thus depend on the services of Outreach in times of crisis. Thanks to the generosity of the board, staff, volunteers, donors, and countless friends, Outreach continues to provide quality services to those that need a helping hand and compassionate heart. If you are in need of TBOM's services, then please contact us or click on Our Services to learn more about how we can help you and your family.
Our Mission To provide compassionate assistance to Polk County residents who do not have the resources to provide for their basic life needs.
