One out of every five Houstonians lives in poverty. CCSC strives to follow Christ’s instruction, helping “the least of these” with their most basic necessities. Read how you can help.
Contribute to the Back-to-School program. Thousands of children in Greater Houston will begin the 2004-2005 school year without the basic supplies needed to succeed. Fortunately, you can help. For $40.00 you can provide a student with a new school uniform and a packet of school supplies. Please submit checks made out to “CCSC Back to School Project” and place them in the offering on Sundays now through August.
CCSC is also in need of volunteers for sorting supplies (July 31) and for distribution (August 6-7). Please contact Jenna Nassif for more information.
Share success stories. Next year, CCSC will celebrate 25 years of ministry to our community. One way they will celebrate reaching this milestone will be to put together a commemorative book entitled The Heart and Soul of CCSC. This book will be a collection of true stories from members of the CCSC community, which includes everyone who participates in the life of CCSC: all volunteers, staff, clients, clergy and donors. Do you have a story to share? More information about this project is available at www.ccschouston.com. The deadline to submit the story is September 30, 2004.
