Last Resource
Guided by the Catholic social teaching of the Preferential Option for the Poor, The Last Resource was founded in 1992 to assist those in need within our parish and local community with utility bills. We proudly serve our neighbors in North Rutherford County, specifically throughout La Vergne and Smyrna.
Our team operates with the firm belief that the true blessing lies in the giving, answering the call to serve our neighbors with dignity, care, and compassion.
