Backpacks for Kids: Serve
In Prince William County, there are many children that are food insecure. Food insecure is “the limited or uncertain availability of nutritionally adequate and safe food.” In Prince William County, over 19,000 elementary school children qualified for free or reduced-price school lunches. Although these children are provided meals during the week, some do not have access to food on the weekends. We want to ensure these children don’t have to worry where their next meal is coming from by providing children with weekend food bags.
Cooperative Council of Ministries is a council of Christian churches supporting essential services to the homeless population in Prince William County. In collaboration with Prince William County Department of Social Services, CCoM provides meals and services for the Hilda Barg Homeless Prevention Center (HBHPC), Bill Mehr Drop-in Center (DIC), and Overnight Shelter (OS). At various times during the year, Immanuel provides meals at HBHPC, and collects items needed at the DIC or OS.
Financial donations for the DIC may be made to Servants at Work, PO Box 4608, Woodbridge, VA 22194-4608.
