"Urban Harvest Ministries has created miracles for the children and families of our community. They are a blessing for us in Mott Haven as they successfully assist our youth. We in Mott Haven are better for it."
Luis Perez, Community Liaison for Congressman Jose Serrano, Bronx, NY
"Urban Harvest Ministries has demonstrated their ability to successfully manage character-building programs that target children, teenagers and families in Mott Haven. They have effectively impacted hundreds of residents, while maintaining program integrity. They truly understand the needs within this community."
Valentin Feliciano Jr., former Chairman, National Hispanic Business Group, New York
"I've worked with Mel Gibson and The Passion of the Christ, with Benny Hinn and TBN and other fine ministries. What I love most about UHM is what they are doing on the street level. Many great ministries do very well in front of cameras and millions of people and I think we have a need for that, but where are the people that are really on the streets, and going handshake by handshake, heart to heart, person to person? That is what I love the most about Urban Harvest Ministries. The bottom line is they make a difference. I'm honored to be a very small part of it."
Mike Ilitch, Jr., Prelude Worldwide and Ilitch Family Holdings
"The impact made in the South Bronx by Urban Harvest Ministries is life changing. I have seen first hand how men, woman, children, and teens have had their lives turned around. I have seen people from one of the most devastated areas in America find peace and purpose in their lives. In a time when few will make the sacrifice it takes for urban communities, Dr. Tom Grassano and Urban Harvest Ministries are getting the job done."
Bill Simmons, director, Master's Commission, Washington, DC
"I have been blown away by how they go into the highways and the byways and spread God's love. They have a top notch team. They are truly dedicated to their mission. They have a vision for this city. The first time I met Dr. Tom Grassano with my sister, Pamela, I cried all the way home in my car. This is what we've been praying for our city."
Deryl Horton, Willie Horton Foundation, Detroit, MI
"We wholeheartedly support the staff and young people of the Urban Harvest Ministries programs. We have been impressed by everyone in the organization. Urban Harvest has had a profound effect on the lives of the young people they work with and their families."
Mark Gonzalez, Associate Director, ASPIRA and Project B.E.A.M., Bronx
