doesn't pause. Neither do we.

A temp grant writer walked in on a Tuesday. By Friday she'd submitted the SNAP outreach renewal we were three days from losing.
Denise Okafor
Executive Director, Eastside Community Food Bank
Denise had two full-time staff and a federal grant cycle that couldn't wait for a six-week hiring process. Hearth placed a development temp with direct SNAP reporting experience within 36 hours. The grant renewed. The pantry stayed open.

I spent eight years in corporate recruiting. I left to do something that felt like it mattered. Hearth was the first call I made.
Priya Raghunathan
Development Temp, Hearth Bench since 2022
Priya now takes 3–4 placements a year — a community health center grant cycle here, a refugee resettlement agency communications gap there. She brings two decades of fundraising instinct and zero patience for work that doesn't move people forward.
Marcus and I figured out the family's housing situation together. By the end of the week I forgot he was a temp.
Luis Sandoval
Program Director, New Roots Refugee Services
When federal funding hit Luis's desk with a 72-hour hiring window, Hearth placed Marcus — a case manager with six years in refugee resettlement — before the week was out. Today Marcus is a permanent hire. That's not the goal, but it's not a bad outcome either.
