Mission
Welcoming Neighbors Supporting
Stability.
Vision
GNCC will empower individuals and
families with positive, life-changing skills
while meeting basic social, educational and physical
needs and providing culturally-sensitive services.
Core Values
Called to serve our neighbors. "For I was
hungry and you gave me something to eat, I
was thirsty and you gave me something to
drink... I needed clothes and you clothed
me" (Matthew 25:35,36).
Diversity in faith and nationality. We believe that
everyone - no matter their race, culture, ethnicity or
creed - are children of God. Our organization was
founded as a mission of the Seventh-day Adventist
Church and continues to serve in Christian hospitality
but does not proselytize any religion or faith to those
served.
Together. We believe by working in partnership with
others, we can do more good.
About Us
The Good Neighbor Community Center
was established in 1973 by the Seventh-
day Adventist Churches of Lincoln in
response to the identified need for
essential and emergency services within
our community. Throughout the years, we
have consistently provided emergency food, clothing,
and household items in a supportive and
understanding environment. Each client is welcomed
with respect and encouraged to actively participate in
our programs.
Our mission extends beyond merely assisting
individuals with their basic and emergency needs. We
are committed to empowering them with
opportunities to build brighter futures for their families
and the community as a whole.
In 2003, the Good Neighbor Community Center was
formally incorporated under the laws of the State of
Nebraska. We have cultivated collaborative
partnerships with like-minded organizations,
educational institutions, businesses, faith-based
communities, and individuals who share our vision of
welcoming neighbors and promoting stability.
