Helping Hands in Wildwood and the World
FPC is a Church that values outreach and mission in our community and around the world. We make annual donations to multiple local charities including House of Hope, Wildwood Soup Kitchen, Wildwood Food Pantry, the Haven, House of Hope , Wildwood School Booster Club, Community Medical Center, One Great Hour of Sharing, 5 cents a Meal, General Assembly and many more. In additional to financial contribution there are monthly initiative like Souper Bowl and the Personal Hygiene Initiative shown below. In upcoming months we will be collecting men’s and Women’s under clothing from socks on up. Details to come...
"In Honor of Mother’s Day in May" FPC of Wildwood will be collecting women's clothing items to benefit the Haven and Forward Paths Foundation. We are asking for belts, socks and undergarments of all sizes and styles. These items will be shared between two wonderful organizations: The Haven who helps women dealing with domestic abuse. Many times, all they have are the clothes on their backs when they arrive there. In some cases, they also have children with them. The other group is the Forward Paths Foundation. Their focus is helping young women and men who are aging out of the foster care system at age 18. In June, we will do the same thing for men (belts, socks, underwear) in honor of Father’s Day. More to come later!
