Support Local Community

DONATE FOOD

Ballard Vale United Church now hosts a 24-hour freestanding self-serve pantry and fridge! The community is invited to leave what they can and take what they need. Donations can be dropped off directly in the pantry at 23 Clark Rd or online donations accepted here.

HELP GROW FOOD

The Permaculture Garden builds community and the faith that we are called to partner with God in caring for the earth, while planting seeds to nurture body, mind and spirit.

DONATE CLOTHING

Empower women through the clothes in your closet.  Your beautiful clothes will give low-income women the tools to build self-esteem and self worth..

REMEMBER OUR SENIORS

Seniors may be isolated in their homes or in  retirement homes.  Send a card, note or drawing to let you know you are thinking of them!  West Parish Seniors are in Marland Place,  Edgewood, Prescott House,  and Brooksby Village - but any note would be wonderful!
