Our benevolences provide ongoing financial support to organizations such as Christian Cooperative Ministries, Opportunity House, CVAN, Salvation Army Center of Hope, and the Boys and Girls Club, to name a few. We also host food and supply drives and have a variety of opportunities to offer our time and talents to various local charities.
