Ten percent of our church’s collective gifts go out to amazing people and organizations Reservoir believes in and is in partnership with. One of these organizations is Victory Programs (VPI). VPI serves individuals and families in crisis, the vast majority of whom are homeless or precariously housed, and struggling with substance use, mental health, and living with chronic illnesses such as HIV/AIDS, with programs that provide shelter, sustenance, recovery, care, and professional, compassionate support.
Join us after service on February 26th (10:45 am – 12:00 pm) to pack hygiene kits to be distributed to VPI clients and to hear from VPI staff about their work and ways that the Reservoir community can be involved.
We will be collecting the items at church on the following Sundays: Feb 12, Feb 19 and Feb 26. The list of requested items is attached.
