Eastside Ministries

Welcome to Eastside Fort Worth. Eastside Ministries (ESM) is a private, voluntary nonprofit 501(c)3 organization whose sole purpose, without discrimination, is to service local needy families, the elderly, handicapped and homeless persons that live in zip codes 76103, 76112, and 76120.

Clients must fall within certain financial parameters to be eligible to come to ESM. Those that qualify are provided with food, clothing, and referrals to other agencies when needed.

Today ESM is servicing approximately 500 households a month which represents about 1400 individuals that are being helped.

Why ESM?

Many Eastside residents are in need of help each day. Some of those individuals go to area churches daily seeking food, clothing, and other support. In 1985, Eastside area churches from many denominations joined together to form a single nonprofit organization to address these needs.

The creation of a single service location, Eastside Ministries, for residents who are in crisis has proven to be mutually beneficial to all parties and is far better at provisioning the area needy than what the individual churches could do by themselves.

See the About Us section on more information for how ESM is structured and organized.
