TLC Ministry was founded by artist and community leader Erik McCullough. What began as a humble effort to share home‑cooked tacos with friends has grown into a movement of compassion and creativity. We saw that technology was reshaping work and livelihoods, leaving many feeling isolated and uncertain. Our response: combine the simple joy of a warm meal, the healing power of love, and the transformative magic of art.
Today, TLC Ministry nourishes hundreds of neighbors every week. We gather over food, listen to each other’s stories, and create works of art that brighten our streets. We believe that everyone deserves dignity, connection, and the chance to express themselves—no matter what changes the world brings.
Mission: To nourish our community with food, love, and art—building resilience in a world transformed by technology.
Vision: A future where every person feels seen, supported, and inspired to create; where technological change serves humanity, not the other way around.
“I’ve been an artist all my life, but the most important creation I’ve made is this community. At TLC Ministry we measure success in smiles, stories, and shared meals. Thank you for being part of our journey.”
– Erik McCullough, Founder
