Food Drive 500

For the past several years, the Thrivent Member Network – Northeast Region has issued a challenge to its members – help “combat food insecurity in communities across the region with the Feed Northeast Thrivent Action Team incentive program.” Holy Cross has been an eager participant for many years, collecting thousands of items for the Bridgeport Rescue Mission (BRM) and earning them thousands of dollars in additional support from Thrivent.

We plan to repeat our success this month by participating in Feed Northeast 2024. We have set a goal of collecting at least 500 non-perishable food items to share with our neighbors at the Bridgeport Rescue Mission. By achieving our goal on time, they will be eligible for an additional $500 donation.

Our collection deadline is October 31, but the faster we reach 500 items, the better the opportunity for the Bridgeport Rescue Mission to earn an additional $500 donation. Food insecurity is real and present in the greater Bridgeport area. Please give prayerful consideration to how you will help our brothers and sisters in need

CROP Hunger Walk - Bridgeport

Please plan on joining the team from Holy Cross as we walk to help raise funds to feed the hungry.

from the CROP Hunger walk website…

The prolonged war in Ukraine, on top of the pandemic and other disasters is causing a global food crisis. Millions are on the brink of famine. The CROP Hunger Walk and the funds we raise will feed the hungry through CWS. When you join this movement, donate and raise funds, you will provide life-saving support like emergency food along with the seeds, tools and programs that will help families feed themselves in the future.
