Philosophy

​

The philosophy of Paige's People is based on our call to serve others. In a world of kind people, if you cannot find one, BE ONE! We believe in:

​

  • Maintaining respect and support for those less fortunate

  • Responding to the basic human needs for one another

  • Raising the community's awareness surrounding homelessness and mental health issues in Fresno County

  • Sharing our hearts and love with those who need it

Paiges People is a local 501(C)(3) organization, with roots in Clovis, California. Our aims are to help those who are less fortunate.
Just like Paige,                                  , we believe the world is full of kind people! If you don't see one, then become one! 

"Once in a while, you get shown the light
in the strangest of places if you look at it right."
