Salina Shares

Generosity of spirit and acts of kindness are at the heart of Salina Shares. We are comprised of clusters of friends throughout our town in which community is unfolding as a way of life.

What began as group outings for random acts of kindness, continues to grow into activities and outings with the intention of being a “sudden good break” to those we meet along the way.  We share what we can when we can in an effort to release hope, impact lives and affirm the dignity of everyone we meet.

The mission of Salina Shares is to share our time, our lives and our resources with our community. We invite individuals, businesses, churches, organizations and schools to participate in enriching our community by sharing what we can with one another. Read more...
