RHK Volunteer Spotlight - Ben Gottman
Serving the kids keeps me yearning to return every week. This is my way of serving Christ - by being there for all of them. Mostly, I feel called to be there to do my best to help lead them in the ways of the Lord. These kids have a special place in my heart. The world works against them non-stop. I just want to be someone they can look to that is there for them.

Giving from the Heart
At RHK, we're continually amazed by the generosity of those who support our mission to share God's love with inner-city youth. One humbling example of this giving spirit comes from a small local church with just under 45 members that has faithfully poured into our ministry since its early days as a church.

RHK Insights from "Miss Dee": One of Those Days
Ever have “one of those days?”
One evening during our program, one of the little boys was sent to me for the third time that evening. Nothing was helping. He was kicking other kids, jumping from place to place and would not listen to anything.
