Centenary UMC in New Bern discovered their Congregations for Children (C4C) partner school needed supplies to serve students breakfast and lunch. The Men’s Fellowship of Centenary provided a donation to purchase 1,000 sporks and 1,000 styrofoam-covered plates for the school lunchroom.
Swansboro UMC also donated supplies to their C4C partner school after reaching out to the cafeteria manager. The church donated 800 gallon-sized zip lock bags before Thanksgiving. Swansboro UMC is planning to purchase additional zip lock bags for the lunchroom and continue monthly until the lunchroom supplies are back to normal.
