Uplifting and uniting our community

By providing caring services and resources to meet our neighbors’ needs with dignity and respect.

WAIM (Windham Area Interfaith Ministry) provides basic needs and support to area residents with insufficient income. Our goal is to keep people safely housed, meet basic material needs and connect them to resources that sustain their stability.

Our Programs

Emergency Financial Assistance

WAIM is dedicated to helping our neighbors who are struggling to make ends meet. Emergency financial assistance from WAIM can help with rent or mortgage payments, utility bills, transportation expenses, and other basic needs.

Material Donations

WAIM distributes donated clothing, furniture, appliances, and other household items to people in need in our community for free. Literally, tons of useful items are kept out of local landfills and welcomed into the homes of individuals and families who give them a second life.

We started out the Thread City Mend-a-thon with these piles of clothes that needed mending. We had over thirteen volunteers this afternoon that came to help out.

The bin is filled with the clothes that we fixed. There are 5 pieces of clothing that we didn't get to.

A huge thank you to Silas Brassard for creating and organizing the event. A huge thank you to everyone that came out and lended their sewing skills. A special thank you to Laura and Molly from the UCONN Natural Resources Academy for your support.

These clothes have a new life. They will be put on the racks of WAIM for folks to take rather than go to a landfill.
