About Us
Thermal Belt Outreach Ministry ("Outreach") is nestled within the Blue Ridge Mountains of Western North Carolina in the town of Columbus, just east of Tryon, NC. Outreach serves Polk County families and individuals that 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. Many of those in need come to us because they are in a short-term crisis and are unable to pay the electric bill or buy food for their children. Others live with the devastating effects of long-term poverty and thus depend on the services of Outreach. Thanks to the generosity of the board, staff, volunteers, donors, and countless friends, Outreach continues to provide quality services to those that need. If you are experiencing a crisis, please contact us or click on Our Services to learn more about how we can help you and your family.
