"SPIN-ing HOPE": CELEBRATING OUR COMMUNITY HEROES
We're excited to launch a new monthly feature at Serving People in Need—"SPIN-ing Hope!" This space will highlight individuals and groups making a meaningful impact through their generosity and selflessness. With grateful hearts we will tell their stories.
In our very first edition, we are thrilled to highlight Mark Ontiveros, his family, and his associates.
ACTS OF KINDNESS
Last September, Mark and his daughters enlisted the JSerra High School Girls Volleyball Team and hosted a Hygiene Kit Drive that brought in over 1,000 hygiene kits and 300 cans of food. Their efforts helped us support countless individuals and families in need, showing the true power of community care!
But that’s not all! In November, Mark and his team at Audio Images went above and beyond by donating and installing an entire new phone system, enhancing our ability to connect with those we serve.

Then, in December, Mark, his wife Cynda, and their Audio Images team hosted a Household Drive, delivering vital items valued at over $2,500 that will make a difference in many lives.
The commitment of these individuals to giving back exemplifies the very heart of SPIN. We are deeply grateful for their unwavering support and for the powerful example they set for others.
Stay tuned for more stories of hope, inspiration, and impact in future editions of SPIN-ing Hope.
Together, we help empower those in need!
