provideInc

We were part of the first volunteer effort organized in Lori’s basement home to provideInc years ago. My young son had so much fun packing bags for homeless folks and couldn’t wait to do something like that again. One of the gifts of provideInc is “providing” opportunities for people to experience serving others at a young age and catch the mission! There are so many unique opportunities to serve, too- from donating supplies to filling bags with supplies to sewing- and those are just a few that I’m familiar with. Plus, once a person meets Lori, he/she wants to spend more time with her. Her heart is full of love!

I had the amazing opportunity of working as the communications intern at provideInc the summer of 2019. Working one on one with Lori opened my eyes to the non profit world. I was able to create the summer newsletter that highlights the amazing projects and programs going on through provideInc. Lori's passion to help people is refreshing! provideInc is always looking for new ways to help the community for the better.

ProvideInc is an amazing organization that reaches individuals locally and miles away. Distance is not a barrier for them to deliver upon needs. Through my involvement with them, I have met many new people and learned about the needs of others around me. The Naseef family are a trustworthy, devoted group and I am thankful for their presence in my community!

ProvideInc is an amazing charity that really cares about helping people to love volunteering. Lori has done a great job coming up with many family friendly serving events. My children love helping and have already learned so much about the impact they can make by doing little acts of kindness with a large group of people. ProvideInc is making a positive impact in the world in so many ways. It’s a great charity to get involved with!

I love these guys! Their service projects are so well organized and they are always coming up with amazing new ideas to serve others and impact the community!

Lake Orion United Methodist Church has hosted and participated in many Provide Inc. events over the past several years. Not only are the causes relevant and so worthy of attention, the events are so well thought out and organized. I have always been impressed by the collaboration between people and organizations to collect items for larger projects. I love the way Provide Inc. brings people together from the community and beyond to serve together in such a wonderful way. Everybody is welcome and encouraged to participate whether you are 5 or 95 years old. I can't wait to see what is next!

I have know Lori her entire life. She has a very kind and giving heart especially when it comes to helping anyone! This has been exemplified in her own family with the way she has involved and instilled these same values to all of her children as well.
How she accomplishes all she does pretty much says it all. She has GIVEN Providinc her ALL and it shows. I wish I lived closer so i could help her.
You and your family certainly deserve alot of recognition for all you have done for those in this country and all over the world...

What Provide and Lori do for others and the community is beyond measure. She truly does make a difference through mentoring and giving back. I'm happy to have had the opportunity to volunteer through some of Provides many charitable activities.

It's been an honor to serve on the board of Provideinc. And as a local pastor it has been a joy to see this organization bring people from various denominations together for a common purpose with various creative and unique expressions.

I have had the pleasure of working with Lori and Steve this last year and have been awed by all the things that Provide Inc is involved with. Not only do they help the local community they expand their outreach to include other countries as well. Lori and Steve exude a love of helping others and it shows in their passion to help others. I have enjoyed working with them and will continue to in the future. They are a wonderful asset to the community!!

We are privileged to work with Providence Inc and Lori Naseef. We know that the contributions go to great causes, that we strongly believe in as a family. It has also helped opened my teenage daughters eyes to many local and global issues. This non-profit organization is making a difference one small step at a time.

Provideinc has done so much in the community and abroad. We have been privileged to be a part of their various missions: feeding the hungry, clothing the homeless, helping those who have escaped from domestic violence and praying for peace just a few things that have been done over the years. We encourage others to take part in supporting Provideinc thru service, prayers and donations. Our family is excited to be able to continue to work with them and share their service. This is teaching our children the importance of sharing, caring, empathy, responsibility and love. It is so important to spend time doing for others and being truly grateful for all that you have.

I am pretty particular who I support and who I give money to, if I am being honest. ProvideInc., is very different from other local, grass roots non-profit organizations. First of all, the diretor is a woman of honesty and integrity. Her yes is a yes, and her no is usually a "let me see how we can help in the future".
What started as a way to help teach a young group of girls how to serve their local community, has blossomed into a larger organization that partners with a diverse group of folks who are trying to better their community or bless those around them in the name of Jesus. What Lori and her every growing team do to support others - inspires me. Through them, I have been a part of serving the greater community where needs exist, that I never knew were there. It is my joy to support ProvideInc.

I have worked with Provide Inc. on more than one occasion and all my experiences have been fantastic. The company truly does whatever they can to help people and does so in some pretty unique ways. I appreciate what they do in our local community and world wide. Provide is very quick to work with other organizations and groups in order to put together the best plan of action and assist the needy. Overall, my experiences with Provide Inc have exceeded my expectations.

For my senior Capstone project at Oakland University I donated 70 community service hours to a non-profit organization of my choice. I was able to help Lori, the president of ProvideInc with anything she needed assistance with. Her passion was honorable and I admire her work in the community so much. I look up to her and have continued working with her throughout the year. Provide is a great tool for students to use in high school to gain community service hours, there is a variety of projects they gear their focus on, and anyone is encouraged to help in any way possible. I have watched Provide be built from the basement of a home moving quickly into their own building space. It is incredible what they do and where they have come. I can only hope they continue to grow as an organization.

ProvideInc was birthed in the home of my friend Lori Naseef. She saw various needs in the community and the world on one hand. She saw various groups and individuals who wanted to make a difference, but could not figure out how to connect to make any significant impact on the other. ProvideInc matches the one hand with the other: local volunteers with local and/or global projects. A donation as small as dollar makes a huge impact on the life of real people (or animals) in need when matched with a project and team of volunteers who can donate some time and or donation dollars. ProvideInc operated out of a basement for years so that every dollar donated could be used to help volunteers work on their projects: clothing for the needy, simple necessities/treats to support our military personnel, assistance for animal shelters. The list has grown as the volunteers have described their vision and Lori has crafted and guided their projects to success. More people can make more impact through ProvideInc. I think this charity could and should be replicated in every community!

Being involved in Provide Inc has been a blessing in my life. I first started collecting items for the various wish lists and then became involved with the stockings for soldiers project. I have met some wonderful people, including the founder, Lori Naseef. I love how she involves teens in the projects, thereby hopefully inspiring them to volunteer during their lives. Some volunteering I have done gets old -- you get burned out by doing the same thing over and over again. With Provide, there is always a variety of choices.

Thank you Provide Inc. for meeting the needs of so many people and agencies! Provide Inc. has established themselves as a reliable non profit agency in our community and I highly recommend them to others in need. I love how they knit the community together and invite us to join in their efforts to collect, assemble, and distribute to those in need. Any age volunteer is affirmed in their effort to reach out a hand of hope and nothing is wasted. I also appreciate the regular updates regarding the ministry and the impact they experience. May God continue to bless the works of your hands and prosper you in every way. Penny Shults, Orion Township Clerk and supporter of Provide Inc.

Provide Inc has been a real blessing to my mission teams to Haiti, over the past couple years. They have blessed us with soccer balls, baby formula, new dresses, soccer uniforms, and other miscellaneous items that we have been able to share with the Haitian people. I usually take teams of 15-20 people, and Provide Inc is always there to lend a hand with meeting the needs of our teams. They lighten our burden and enable us to bless the children of Haiti. I always have so many things to take care of before we go, so Provide Inc's role collecting necessary supplies is a great relief.

As a business in the greater Detroit area, choosing ProvideInc to partner up with was an easy decision. Lori and her staff come up with the most cereative ways to help those in need and work closely with the young people in the community to get it done. They tell you right up front what their mission and goals are and they follow through. BIG TIME. Q3AM will always suport the efforts of this wonderful non profit.

Provide, Inc. is a wonderful nonprofit that touches so many areas. From making stockings to collecting soccerballs to helping animal shelters, their help is far reaching. This diversity makes it unique in my mind. I also love how they encourage our youth to get involved. Each newslettter highlights what their current projects and programs are and just how we can get involved, either by a dontation or by hands on help. They truly provide assistance for so many and provide service opportunities. I am happy to be a donor and see exactly how I am helping.

Provideinc is a wonderful non-profit. It reaches so many different people in so many different ways. They assist so many different groups both in the US and internationally. Lori and Seve Naseef put so much of themselves into this organization and it is a huge success. I have worked with them for about 3 years on various projects and it amazes me how they reach so many different people, from the inner cities, soldiers, Haiti, and people in need all over the world. I have been able to also get my children and youth groups involved with several different projects with provide inc as well. Provide Inc is a wonderful nonprofit and deserves to be listed on the Top Rated Non profit list.

Provide, Inc. is a wonderful organization run by the most caring, hard working, trustworthy people I know. They are always looking for ways to help others, impact their lives and get the community involved in helping others.

ProvideInc helps those in need both near and far. Our local homeless community benefits, those who serve our country within the military benefit and even those in distant countries such as Brazil benefit. There are so many different ways to help within this charity that giving is made as easy as possible through either donations of materials, money or time. Lori Naseef's commitment to make a difference exemplifies how one person can indeed "Be the change you wish to see in the world."

We are a non-profit that serves the homeless in a major city in Michigan. ProvideInc. has been very beneficial in helping to provide us with some of the basic needs we have in order to better serve our clients. They have collected and put together Hygiene kits, Easter Baskets, blankets, hats, gloves, socks, and scarves. They take the time to not only provide us with hygiene items they go the extra step and put the hygiene kits together. Their help us lifted a huge burden from our shoulders.

ProvideInc.org is a nonprofit I have donated to in the past and will continue to donate to.This organization is a wonderful place where the kids in our community help people in need all over the world.It is unique in the fact that there is always a new project to get involved in.So if your teenager doesn't fit a certain project,there are many more to get involved in.It's hands on for the kids.Teaching them a lifetime habit of helping others.Such a positive place.

We had a ladies' sewing day to make little dresses for Africa and capes for kids with cancer. Lori was willing to drive a long way, and she was amazingly organized and thorough. She even brought scissors and irons. The ladies who participated enjoyed using their skills, or not! We had a couple who had never sewn, but Lori had jobs for every skill level and age. I highly recommend Provide, Inc. for any community group, church, or even elementary school class looking for a fun and worthwhile volunteer opportunity.

I owe quite a lot to ProvideInc. My charity, Capes for Courage, was in its inception stages when she found us online. I had the idea, but had no idea where to take it and how to reach my community on a larger scale. Lori was so generous with her time, speaking with me on the phone about my strategy and some directions in which I could take my idea. Then, she hosted several sew-ins with her amazing volunteers and they contributed their time and talents to sewing capes for us. They then mailed the capes to me for distribution at my local children's hospital. I am so grateful to Lori for the work that she does and I know that I am just one of many recipients of the good efforts at ProvideInc.

Provideinc helps out a lot of different charities. Lori does an awesome job getting information out so people can help with their time and donating things.

ProvideInc is involved in so many different charities it absolutely blows me away. The passion that Lori has for the community and the hurting world is incredible. What I see in this organization are individuals that aren't going just sit around and complain about things but are going to do something to make a difference. We individually can make a difference and together we can make huge changes. I am honored to be able to participate in helping this organization in any way that I can.

Everyone involved are wonderful people and providing great help to others.

I have volunteered many times for Provide Inc. when they needed people to help move or transport items to help less fortunate families. Provide Inc. is making a huge impact on other people's lives in a positive way and volunteering for them is simple but at the same time you feel like you are really making a huge difference. Provide Inc. is by far the best non-profit organization I have ever volunteered for and I plan to volunteer more in the future.

As the Chief of Police for the Lake Orion Police Department, I have had the opportunity to see the impact ProvideInc makes in our community, and wherever the need exists. From a blanket drive to assist those in need after the Tsunami in Japan, to helping the LOPD provide Christmas shopping trips to needy Lake Orion Families, Provideinc is the first to step to the plate, and always hits a homerun. I am proud to have them on our team in Lake Orion ! Jerry L. Narsh, Chief of Police, LOPD

provideInc. has supported numerous charitable projects in our local communities and all across the globe. It is great to see families and teenagers develop their heart for serving others at the various events that provideInc. has supported. The projects are very well -organized and are clearly communicated to the volunteers. They send newsletter foliow-up to all volunteers, so each one can see the faces of people they have helped and impacted.

ProvideInc. makes an impact on the world both locally and globally. It's a beautiful concept. They've got projects for everybody's interest. Anybody who is looking to donate will find something at ProvideInc. that will touch his or her heart.

Provide Inc. has been an immense help to our home educating co-op called Enrichment Hub in Troy, MI. Through their help and coordination, we were able to donate over 100 Easter baskets to the needy here in Detroit, send multiple care packages to the troops through Desert Angel, make dresses for little girls in Africa, and much, much more. They are so organized, work around our schedule of events, and serve whole heartedly. Our group is very thankful for their tutilage on serving others!
