Outreach, Mission and Services

  • January of 2020 marks the one year anniversary of volunteers attending the weekly Food Cupboard at Emmanuel.  Unfortunately, as with other agencies throughout the country, our Food Cupboard is seeing an increase in use. 
  • Again in 2019 we were the fortunate recipient of a generous donation from the Mixed Dart League of the West Ferris Legion, in addition to individuals dropping off items for distribution. 
  • We are always looking for non-perishable goods to give out. In particular demand from Food Cupboard users are powdered and canned milk, cereal, canned meat and fish and fruit.
  • Outreach volunteers have also given their time to go shopping for the Food Cupboard, putting items away and keeping the storage room in order. 
  • A big thank you to one and all who so generously donate.
 2019  in Review       
* 
Winterlude Luncheon and a Maudy Thursday luncheon in conjunction with the Worship Committee.
* At Christmas we were able to be extra generous with the residents of Emmanuel Village, giving out $25 Metro gift cards (purchased through EUC’s Avgen prepaid cards), as well as fruit baskets. 
*  Outreach spent about $745 on the gardens at the Village.
* In keeping with our agreement in this outreach initiative, we have continued to make quarterly payments to the Village and Myrna Bennison and Brenda Cooper continue to fill the role of washer and dryer coin collectors. Thanks to you both for the time you give to this.
* In the spring, Emmanuel raised $1,380 for the Sudbury-Manitoulin Alzheimer Society’s Walk for Memories.
* We  support the Alzheimer society by paying rent for its art program being held at the Bert Passmore Hall every Thursday morning.
* The West Ferris Community Brunch is another event that Outreach continues to support, having donated $1,500, as well as sharing some food items.
* A call for donation of clothing for a program run by the Indigenous Friendship Centre was answered with a donation of clothing in the amount of $393.65.
