2018 Appalachia Service Project Fundraising
For 28 years, Cary Presbyterian Church has partnered with Appalachia Service Project. This year, 35CPC volunteers will work in Kentucky from July 8-14. Your donations of cash and snacks are of great help to us each year.
Funds may be contributed at this link. (Wait for the pop-up screen.) Volunteers and others may share this link with family in friends to assist us with fund raising. (Any prepackaged snack donations may be placed in the hall outside the church office until July 7.)
ASP volunteers will be fundraising in the Narthex on Sunday, June 24 and July 1. The team
leaves for Kentucky on July 8 so all food, drink and dollars will need to be donated by July 7. We have a great team this year with lots of newbies (both youth and adults)!
There has been an ASP work day at CPC already. The results can be seen at the back kitchen door (new shed) and at the Outdoor Chapel (bench repairs, new Communion table and deck repairs as well). Thanks for your continuing support!
