The Christian Service Center received a generous cash donation of $8,000 from the Church of God. The donation will allow the Christian Service Center to purchase over 65,000 pounds of food from the Feeding America food bank.

The Church of God, a Worldwide Association has met in Orange Beach for eight years. The group desires to bless the communities where they meet and again chose the Christian Service Center as the recipient of their outreach. Each day of their meeting, the group collected food, household supplies, person hygiene items, baby supplies and cash donations.

This contribution will be used to aid families in need in Gulf Shores, Orange Beach and Fort Morgan and will provide thousands of meals.

The Christian Service Center is a “Hand Up” rather than a “Hand Out” agency. Clients are given immediate emergency aid as well as guidance on finding solutions to their problems. The center is a 100% volunteer agency funded by the churches of Pleasure Island, various community organizations including the United Way of Baldwin County and interested individuals.
