We serve individuals and families that are residents of Marion County, Ohio.

For those living outside of our service area, we typically refer callers to check with their local Salvation Army or United Way to learn about resources available to them in their community.

Aspire Ministries is rooted in a phone-based Connection Center. Start by calling 740-382-3340. Our volunteers look forward to speaking with you and learning about your situation.

Our financial assistance is quite limited due to a number of reasons. We are working to create a structured financial assistance ministry that will meet the needs of our community without creating dependency. Until a structured ministry is in place, seeking financial assistance from our partners requires more manpower than we have available to us at this time.

Gap Ministries are created in partnership with Aspire Ministries. We aim to avoid duplication in our community and to create ministries that are a good match for the giftings of their host church. Gap Ministries can be product, service, or education-based and be hosted by one church or multiple churches can work cooperatively to host one. Call us at 740-751-6554 to learn more!

Aspire Ministries is a 501(c)(3) non-profit ministry. We are funded through donations from area churches, businesses, individuals, and other organizations. We apply for grants, but as a religious organization, we often do not qualify, nor apply for government funding.
