Advocacy

Public Health Museum at Tewksbury State Hospital
(Recent Mission Grant Recipient)

We are bridge builders. It didn't take long to figure out that, sometimes, the greatest gift that one can offer is to make a connection between a person who wishes to serve and an organization that could use a helping hand. And so, we take very seriously our role as matchmaker, because we know that there is great reward in doing good in the world and lots of eager people in search of a road map.

Here are some of the ways that we advocate for the needs of individuals and organizations in the Merrimack Valley and beyond:

• Facebook ~ Publicizing local community service and giving opportunities
• Mission Grants ~ Offering quarterly grants of $250 to non-profits with special significance to our members
• Mission Trip Stipend ~ Encouraging our members to experience mission work by reimbursing 10% of the cost
• Used But Usable ~ Informing potential donors with whom they can share their gently used items
• Red Mission/Outreach T-shirts ~ Representing our Congregation as we serve or show our support
