Backpacks for Students
​
​Collaboration with Inland Valley Hope Partners
​Christmas Gifts for families

We supported the Pomona Valley Spiritual Leaders for Justice by donating several Compassion bags of non-perishable foods for immigrants.

We provide to our local community by:

  1.  collecting school supplies and backpacks to donate to students at the elementary and middle school in the Claremont Unified School District;

  2. collecting non-perishable food weekly for the Inland Valley Hope Partners, along with a monthly collection of loose change which we call the “noisy offering”;

  3. supporting and participating in the Annual Walk for Hunger and Homeless;

  4. collecting items for our Easter gift bags (socks, chapstick, lotion, and Kleenex) for both long-term and short-term residents of the Claremont Care Center; and,

  5. collecting paperback books to donate to the Claremont Prison Library Project.
