END OF YEAR GIVING OPPORTUNITIES

As you consider your end-of-year giving, please consider supporting one of these non-profit organizations.

United Christian Alliance Response https://www.uca-response.org/ This group grew out of Hurricane Helene Relief Efforts and have supported our supply center and food pantry for more than a year now. Founder and Director, Ciara Maynard, says “While any amount is appreciated, I believe that even a small donation can make a significant difference. Just as Jesus fed the 5,000 with five loaves and two fish, we trust that with a modest monthly contribution, we can help those in need.”

Hope For Indigent Persons https://hopeforindigentpersons.com/ is the non-profit started by Father Anthony’s friend, Sister Hilda. Her organization can turn a small donation into a big change for people in Nigeria and other parts of the world experiencing extreme poverty. Sister Hilda was inspired to “do something” after hearing the reports last December of people being trampled to death at food distribution sites in Nigeria. “People, children, were dying while trying to get a bag of rice,” she said.

Valley Hope Foundation https://www.valleyhopefoundation.org/ also started after Hurricane Helene. They have three programs, disaster response, food distribution, and long-term recovery. This group supports our food pantry with donations of produce each week. Sarah Carpenter, secretary and board member, even called me—at home—on Thanksgiving weekend to make sure we were scheduled for a produce pick up this week.

Catholic Charities https://ccdoc.org/  Catholic Charities helps our communities in so many ways. They’ve supported our charitable giving with gift cards and donations of food and goods for our work with the elementary school students.

 

OPORTUNIDADES DE DONACIONES DE FIN DE AÑO

Al considerar tu generosidad de fin de año, por favor considera apoyar a alguna de estas organizaciones sin ánimo de lucro.

Respuesta de la Alianza Cristiana https://www.uca-response.org/ Este grupo surgió de los esfuerzos de ayuda tras el huracán Helene y ha apoyado nuestro centro de suministros y la despensa de alimentos durante más de un año. La fundadora y directora, Ciara Maynard, afirma: "Aunque se agradece cualquier cantidad, creo que incluso una pequeña donación puede marcar una diferencia significativa. Así como Jesús alimentó a los 5.000 con cinco panes y dos peces, confiamos en que con una modesta contribución mensual podremos ayudar a los necesitados."

Hope For Indigent Persons https://hopeforindigentpersons.com/ es la organización sin ánimo de lucro fundada por la amiga del padre Anthony, la hermana Hilda. Su organización puede convertir una pequeña donación en un gran cambio para las personas en Nigeria y en otras partes del mundo que sufren una pobreza extrema. La hermana Hilda se inspiró para "hacer algo" tras escuchar los informes del pasado diciembre sobre personas pisoteadas hasta la muerte en centros de distribución de alimentos en Nigeria. "La gente, los niños, morían intentando conseguir una bolsa de arroz", dijo.

La Fundación Valley Hope también https://www.valleyhopefoundation.org/ comenzó tras el huracán Helene. Cuentan con tres programas: respuesta ante desastres, distribución de alimentos y recuperación a largo plazo. Este grupo apoya nuestra despensa de alimentos con donaciones de productos cada semana. Sarah Carpenter, secretaria y miembro de la junta, incluso me llamó a casa el fin de semana de Acción de Gracias para asegurarse de que teníamos programada recogida de productos esta semana.

Caridades Católicas https://ccdoc.org/  Caridades Católicas ayudan a nuestras comunidades de muchas maneras. Han apoyado nuestra donación benéfica con tarjetas regalo y donaciones de comida y bienes para nuestro trabajo con los alumnos de primaria. 

Would you like to donate to the St. Andrew Food Pantry? We would happily accept donations of any of these food items—or, of course, cash.
