Each month, St. Andrew's Church supports a local/county organization/charity or cause with donations (when appropriate) and sharing of information about the work of the organization
Our May Outreach focus is Artemis Huron
Artemis Huron stands with women and families facing gender-based violence, providing safety, shelter, and the tools to rebuild. Whether you’re in crisis or planning for the future, we’re here, day and night, supporting you every step of the way. We are a refuge, an advocate, and a force for change.
Artemis Huron is a bold, feminist organization committed to education, prevention and support for women and families affected by gender-based violence in Huron County. From the first conversation together, we help women explore their options and plan for their future and next steps.
We recognize that gender-based violence does not happen in a vacuum, but rather stems from a culture perpetuating violence against women and children, as well as the queer community. As such, activism and advocacy are key parts of what we do.
Working toward food security for all
We have many opportunities to help alleviate food insecurity in our community and world, two are:
- Blessings basket at church;
- Canada Foodgrains - donate HERE
St. Andrew's UC is hoping to sponsor fees for local children to attend camp this summer.
You can help!
If you would like to contribute, simply put a cheque/cash in an envelope and put it in with regular collections at any Sunday Service. Be sure to note that it is for a child's camp experience.
Let's see how many kids we can send to camp!
