Here is an exciting update on the WARM Project!
As we race to provide heat to over 1000 vulnerable households within the surrounding communities, we have been blown away by the generosity shown by everyone who has donated to our cause. There is still work to be done and families to warm, but we are pleased to say that because of your compassionate giving, over 600 households have been served through the Warm Project so far! We have also reached our fundraising goal of $325,000 for the WARM Project! We are committed to being good stewards of the resources we have been entrusted with to meet the most vulnerable needs at hand. We at PCCR value transparency and living the Gospel in the most authentic way possible and that begins with our relationship with you! Due to the inspirational excess of donations we are looking to continue working with the same local churches that spearheaded our Warm Project, to identify community members with the most emerging needs and we will be allocating all additional donations into this rebuilding effort.
To understand our vision, it is important to understand the day to day adversity these resilient people face. This past evening we became aware of 18 families that have been forced to bathe and use the sewage filled river since the storm. We immediately opened the distribution center after hours so these families could come after the workday and receive supplies. Today we will setup a potable water tank for them and keep them supplied going forward. There are pockets of worthy needs identical to this in the rebuilding effort that we see emerging from the massive flooding and household damage present, and we are committed to help facilitate the purchasing of materials needed to service them appropriately.
Our fundraising focus will transition to allocate the funds to source rebuilding materials for the most vulnerable families in the surrounding communities!
Thank you for your prayers! We see God moving each day, guiding us to those in need and giving us strength to carry on.
God bless!
