The Sea Glass Initiative
Transforming homelessness into hopefulness in Baldwin County, Alabama.
Our partnership
Peace Community Church has adopted the Sea Glass Initiative as an outreach ministry, and we support them through monetary gifts from our benevolence fund.
The Sea Glass Initiative is a nonprofit organization based in Baldwin County, Alabama, dedicated to addressing homelessness and housing insecurity in the region. It was founded in September 2023 by three nonprofit directors who recognized critical gaps in services for the unhoused.
Mission & vision
