Next Tuesday, December 13th will be our monthly food and supply distribution for Cedar Way and Vision House. With Christmas around the corner, we are hoping to provide some Christmas extras. However, I am hoping that the priority would be to provide the produce, diapers, and feminine supplies that they depend on us for.

A few other opportunities that I wanted to share:
THE NOURSHING NETWORK:
Food Drives - There are several food drives dedicated to acquiring food for the Nourishing Network to give to families. We will need a few (3-4) volunteers to sort, count, and date the donations that come in.
Weekend Meal Kit Delivery - We are currently serving around 200 students each week. We are expecting to reach upwards of 350-400 students by January 1st. Our distribution/delivery day is every Thursday 8:15 AM-12:00 PM. Right now we are looking for about five new weekly drivers, but that could increase to 10 drivers.
Holiday Meal Delivery - We are looking for several (around 35-40) volunteer drivers for a December 23rd holiday meal delivery. If you are available that day for delivery, please let us know.
VISION HOUSE:
There are two different Amazon Wishlists for gifts for residents. Vision House just let me know today that they are hoping to have those gifts on site by Wednesday, Dec. 14th.

GIFT CARDS:
I forgot to put a basket in the lobby for dropping off gift cards for Vision House and The Nourishing Network!!!! Collection is from now until January 15th. I promise that I’m on it and will make sure to have that in the lobby this week. 🤦♀️
If you are able to help with meal deliveries or donation sorting, please respond by emailing me, brookviewchurchbrier@gmail.com and I will connect you with Chad James, from the Nourishing Network.
Thank you in advance for loving well in this tangible way. I love what we get to do together and am incredibly thankful!!!!
