Will you be our Valentine?

Happy Valentine’s Day! We at The Mustard Seed of Central Florida are grateful for all the ways you show love to our mission throughout the year, and we wanted to highlight the ways those in our community support our mission:

Becoming a Monthly Donor:

The Mustard Seed relies on the generosity of the community around us to support our mission. While there are many ways to get involved with our mission, joining us as a monthly donor through our I ❤️ TMS! program makes a lasting impact on our mission. A monthly donation to The Mustard Seed will help us serve children and families in the community without a bed to sleep on, a table to eat at, or a sofa to sit on. Your tax-deductible monthly gift of any amount will ensure that those in need are able to make their house into a home. Plus, monthly donors to The Mustard Seed receive an EXCLUSIVE bumper magnet to share the love!

Hosting Sock and Underwear Drives:

For families using our clothing program, the dignity of receiving new items makes a difference for those emerging from crisis. Whether coordinating with clubs, schools, corporate groups, or other community partners, these drives provide the over 800 individuals every year who utilize our clothing program.

However you are involved in our mission, we are grateful for you this valentine’s day!
