Chesapeake City Ecumenical Association (CCEA)

IMMEDIATE NEEDS:  

 

The CCEA Food Pantry is completely out of the following items:

·         Ramens  

·         cold cereal

·         fruit

·         PB&J

We are low on the following items:

·         soup

·         canned meals  

·         boxed meals  

·         canned corn  

·         canned green vegetables  and

·          Pasta sauce.

 

Children are out of school and not getting their provided breakfasts and lunches. Without your donations many children are going to have a very hungry summer.

Donations can be made through the CCEA churches or delivered to the CCEA Complex 227 Basil Ave on Tuesday and Wednesday between 9 and noon.

Thanks for caring about those less fortunate!

 

The SAV-A-TAPE program has been very productive.   I will be submitting tapes in the amount of $11,048.80, next week.  Although tapes as old as 3 years could previously be submitted, the rules have changed.  Tapes must be one year old or less to qualify for reimbursement.  They must be complete and uncut. 

  

Lastly, one of the most needed items: Gift certificates to Acme, Redner's or Food Lion.   The lowest increment allowed is great (I don't know the amount and it likely varies at   each store).  We have received Giant cards in the past, but the nearest store is in DE   and some of our clients would have difficulty getting there.

 

 Gift cards allow our clients to purchase perishable items such as milk, meat & bread.

  Keeping the amounts to a low increment prevents a "run on the pantry" when word

  reaches into the community that we are including gift cards.

 

May GOD keep you & yours safe in HIS arms..
