Community Benefit Tree

Who We Are

Mission: To empower families to effectively navigate medical debt by encompassing finances, fundraising, education, resources and spiritual well-being.

CBT stands as a community-driven organization committed to serving as a steadfast pillar for families navigating the exhausting challenges posed by medical crises.

The vision of the Community Benefit Tree (CBT) is to enable a community to come together to support those struggling through a medical crisis.

We believe that:

  • Every family should not have to decide between treatment and medicine verses basic needs such as food, utilities and a roof over their heads.
  • No family should go without lifesaving treatments, medicine or medical help because of their inability to be able to pay or because health insurance does not cover it.

LCC THRIFT STORE

The LCC Thrift Store is more than a place to shop—it’s a lifeline for families facing a medical crisis. Every donation, purchase, and act of support directly contributes to programs designed to bring relief, stability, and hope during some of life’s most challenging moments.
Basic Needs Fund- thrift store proceeds are reinvested into supporting families with essential expenses during a medical crisis. This fund helps ease the financial burden so families can focus on what matters most—healing and time together.
Resale Program- provides families with an opportunity to donate and resell their unwanted items, turning everyday goods into meaningful financial support. This program empowers families to remain sustainable while navigating medical challenges.
Rental Program- families hosting fundraisers or community events have access to equipment and supplies they may not otherwise be able to afford. This support helps maximize the success of their fundraising efforts and builds stronger community connections.
Voucher Program- ensures families can access essential items with dignity. Through store vouchers, families can shop for clothing, furniture, and household necessities at no cost, helping them meet immediate needs during uncertain times.
Together, these programs make the LCC Thrift Store a powerful source of compassion and community impact—where every item tells a story of generosity, and every purchase helps a family move forward with hope.
