Community Engagement
Mission: Improving lives in our neighborhood
The Community Engagement Committee improves people’s lives locally. We are caring committed people who act on our vision of a just and sustainable world through direct service. We help our local community by learning what people need and asking our congregation to help fulfill those needs. Our projects involve volunteering directly with the people who need our support due to food and housing insecurity. We also support local schools with low income students.
Specific Projects Address:
- Food Insecurity
- Neighbors in Need Brunch
- Growing Garden at EUUC for food banks
- Gleaning Trees in the community for food banks
- Support Local Schools
- New books for school libraries
- School and medical supplies for students
- Support for families
- Housing Insecurity
- Car Camp at EUUC
- Interfaith Family Shelter
- Cold Weather Shelter
If you want to directly help people in our community now, come join us!
All are welcome to join our group and/or to volunteer on projects! We meet on the second Monday of the month, at 7 p.m. on Zoom.
