Catalyst's Mission and Evolution

Catalyst began in 2007 as a response to the needs of low-income homeowners, evolving from informal community repair efforts to a nonprofit recognized for its impactful work in construction. Initially, the organization's mission focused on serving neighbors through residential projects, which naturally laid the groundwork for what would develop into a microchurch initiative. By partnering with like-minded organizations, Catalyst was able to provide not only skilled labor but also support and connection for community members who lacked resources. As the outreach expanded, what started as a small movement grew into a significant network, illustrating how a simple act of service can evolve into a broader mission that includes spiritual growth.
