Love the 'Ham

We are Effingham County, Illinois! Come join us!

Love the 'Ham is made up of people and agencies doing life, serving others, and sharing our resources, gifts, and talents to be a caring and supportive community. We value the investments of those who serve by volunteering and profession to improve the lives of others in creating opportunities for fun, joy, care, assistance, compassion, and dignity.

We walk together. We serve by giving and receiving freely.

We believe that every person is uniquely created with talents, skills, abilities, experiences, passions, and a special purpose, that when utilized, bring satisfaction, fulfillment, and joy.

We believe that every person lives their best life when connecting with others, so why not find others who share similar passions?

We believe that all people have times in their lives when they need a hand-up and when they can lend a hand.

We believe that hundreds of people in Effingham County, Illinois are doing amazing things for others, and would love to have others join them.

We believe that a simple website can connect people to purpose, opportunity, and maybe a new friend.
