Community Assistance Fund

In April the Community Assistance Fund assisted seven families in the amount of $1,324.82. In addition, we helped two families through the South County Community Energy Assistance Fund in the amount of $1,287.55. This is the joint fund supported by five south county churches including St. James'. The assistance was for eviction prevention and BGE turn-off notices. Currently, Claire Pickart, Paula Davis, Jerrie Bailey, Janet Bruce and Edlu Thom-Harper are part of the Community Assistance Team. If you would like to volunteer as a substitute for summer vacations, please let one of us know and we will include you in the training. We require two people to meet with the clients to evaluate their need for assistance. The Community Assistance Team appreciates your support to help our neighbors in need.
