LETTER WRITING TO CORRECTIONAL FACILITIES RESIDENTS
Let’s spread a little joy and hope to the people who are a part of our church behind bars. We want to help alleviate any feelings of isolation and replace with feelings of hope and encouragement.
MID-OHIO FOOD BANK
As a long-standing partner of Rock City Church, we are excited to continue partnering with them to reduce food insecurity across our city
In light of COVID-19, the Mid-Ohio Food Bank has seen their workload and the needs of our city double as industries shut down and people across many professions are unable to work.
There is currently a huge need for volunteers in their warehouse and pantry. The Mid-Ohio Food Bank has updated their model to keep volunteers and the people they serve safe.
MEALS ON WHEELS
Let’s help keep the most at risk populations at home by assisting with Meals on Wheels! More than ever they are in need of volunteers to help with food delivery.
Due to the increased needs during COVID-19, Meals-on-Wheels is hosting a 20 minute driver orientation every day (Monday- Sunday) at 11am. After the orientation, the volunteer will be given a route to deliver the meals to the directed homes.
Location: 670 Harmon Ave., Columbus, OH 43223
