One Great Hour of SharingOne Great Hour of Sharing is an offering that makes the love of Christ real for individuals and communities around the world who suffer the effects of disaster, conflict, or severe economic hardship, and for those who serve them through gifts of money and time. Every year during Lent donations are collected for One Great Hour of Sharing. Aurora Interchurch Task Force1553 Clinton St, Aurora, CO 80010 Aurora Interchurch Task Force, primarily a food and clothing bank, helped a total of 9,145 residents of Aurora in 2009. AITF provides emergency assistance through utility and rental funding, food, clothing, layettes, school supplies, books, household goods, bus tokens, and pharmacy assistance to residents of the community. Same CaféSo All May Eat SAME Cafe is unique in the lack of a set menu as well as set prices. Daily selections are made using fresh, organic ingredients, and funded by the donations of patrons. Instead of a cash register, a donation box is available for one to pay what they felt their meal was worth, or to leave a little more and help out someone less fortunate. If a diner does not have sufficient money to leave, they are encouraged to exchange an hour of service. Heifer InternationalWith gifts of livestock and training, we help families improve their nutrition and generate income in sustainable ways. We refer to the animals as “living loans” because in exchange for their livestock and training, families agree to give one of its animal’s offspring to another family in need. It’s called Passing on the Gift – a cornerstone of our mission that creates an ever-expanding network of hope and peace. |
