Good Samaritan Fund
We know that the COVID-19 crisis has deeply impacted many. There are families in the Eden Christian Academy community that are hurting with loss of income, financial needs for paying bills, and even daily food needs.
In response to these needs,
we have created a Good Samaritan Fund.
Mrs. Christine Kaniecki, a parent of two Eden alumni who also works in the Mt. Nebo campus office, has graciously accepted the opportunity and responsibility of managing this fund.
There are two action steps:
- First, please pray. If the Lord prompts you to give, you can make a gift online at Good Samaritan Fund OR you can mail your gift to the Mt. Nebo Campus, Attention Christine Kaniecki, 318 Nicholson Road, Sewickley, PA 15143. Please make your check payable to Eden Christian Academy and note Good Samaritan Fund in the memo line.
- Second, if you know of an Eden family that is in need or if your family is in need, please confidentially contact Mrs. Christine Kaniecki at ckaniecki@edenca.org.
We are thankful for the opportunity to come alongside families in need just as the Good Samaritan did in Luke 10:25-37.
