Care Packs Donation Drive
You can make a difference to women in Birmingham who are in vulnerable situations.
God’s Kingdom draws near to those who have experienced very difficult circumstances in life. As we are learning about the Beatitudes in our sermon series, we are being encouraged that Jesus is within reach and extends his blessing to those who are oppressed, poor and grieving. As a church, one way we partner with Jesus in extending his blessing to others is through practical donations to people who don’t have the resources to access much-needed items.
Through the end of May we are collecting donations for local agencies who work directly with women who have experienced human trafficking, exploitation, or domestic violence. We are partnering with:
West Midlands Anti Slavery Network
Heartlands Hospital Maternity Ward
Birmingham & Solihull Women’s Aid
British Red Cross
Adavu
