2020 Mission: Food for Students during this crisis

Our coordinators for Backpack Buddies have organized ways to distribute the food items to students at McGee’s Crossroads Elementary and Dixon Road Elementary. Food donations for this need have increased due to the school system being closed. Please leave those items in the Joy Class Sunday School Room. The West Johnston Food Pantry is also in greater need of donations and those items can be left in the Library at church.

JCPS is currently putting together a food bus system to get food into the areas of highest need for their students. They have also set up curbside grab & go meals for students & siblings 0-18 at 13 different schools.
Johnston County Public Schools is looking for volunteers to help with distribution/donations/etc. You can use this form to sign up/see more about what ways you can give and JCPS will be in contact with you.  linked district volunteer 
If you wish for your donations to be picked up from your home please leave a message on the church email and arrangements will be made.
Thank you for your generosity in this time of need.
