Who we are:

The Christian Compassion Center, Inc. (C3) collects merchandise from individuals, businesses, local stores and charitable organizations for distribution to Central Texas citizens in need, free of charge, through our ever growing number of volunteers and work closely with a number of associate faith-based organizations in the Central Texas area to ensure proper delivery and core needs assessment.

Our vision and mission is to bring a little bit of the Kingdom to this earth in our time through acts of  giving and kindness.

1 John 3:17: “But if anyone has the world’s goods and sees his brother in need, yet closes his heart against him, how does God’s  love abide in him? Little children, let us not love in word or talk but in deed and in truth.”

What we do:

Since inception in 2010, C3 has donated over $1,000,000 of materials to Austin’s disadvantaged community.

2012 objective is to increase our giving to $1,500,000 for calendar year.

The materials are available and the needs are great. Our hope is that through these acts of giving and kindeness, we can facilitate the communication of the Gospel through these endeavors.

James 2:14 “What good is it, my brothers, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can that faith save him? If a brother or sister is poorly clothed and lacking in daily food, and one of you says to them, “Go in peace, be warmed and filled,” without giving them the things needed for the body, what good is that?  So also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.”
