Helping Children in Need

Boys and Girls Clubs of Bloomington  is an organization dedicated to serving the youth in our local community. They provide camps and programs during after-school hours, holiday breaks, and summer vacation.  They have three locations in Bloomington.  See our Pop-Up page for current volunteer opportunities.  FPC contact: Joy Main – mainfamily227@gmail.com and David Giedroc – giedroc@indiana.edu.

Monroe County United Ministries provides services and support for low-income households throughout Monroe County, , including year-round affordable childcare for children 1 to 6 years old. First Presbyterian helps by collecting food and other supplies for the pantry on a regular, on-going basis, gives financial support, volunteers in food distribution, and helps at Opportunity House, a non-profit resale store that supports the MCUM ministries. FPC contact: Ann Schechter – earsch@comcast.net
