Mission Giving at First Presbyterian Church of Livermore

Supporting Causes That Make a Difference

At New Community Rising Church, we believe in the power of giving back to humanity. Our mission giving efforts at First Presbyterian Church of Livermore are aimed at supporting local, national, and international causes that align with our faith and beliefs. Through these efforts, we strive to create a positive impact in our community and beyond.

Local Outreach Initiatives

Our church actively engages in various local outreach initiatives, aiming to make a difference in the lives of those around us. From organizing food drives and clothing donations to supporting homeless shelters and providing educational resources to underprivileged children, we are committed to addressing pressing challenges faced by our local community.

Food Drives

Through our regular food drives, we collect non-perishable food items to distribute to local food banks and soup kitchens. Our congregation comes together to contribute towards alleviating food insecurity in our community, ensuring that no one goes to bed hungry.

Clothing Donations

We organize clothing drives to collect gently used clothing from our community members. These donations are then distributed to individuals and families in need. By providing warm clothing during the colder months and professional attire for job seekers, we aim to support our community members in their daily lives and career aspirations.

Supporting Homeless Shelters

Recognizing the importance of safe and stable housing, we actively collaborate with local homeless shelters to provide resources and support. From volunteering at shelters to organizing fundraising events, we strive to improve the lives of those experiencing homelessness.

Educational Resources for Underprivileged Children

We are passionate about ensuring equal educational opportunities for all children. Through partnerships with local schools and organizations, we provide educational resources, such as books, school supplies, and tutoring services, to underprivileged children in our community. By empowering these children with the tools they need to succeed, we hope to break the cycle of poverty.

National Initiatives

In addition to our local efforts, we actively participate in national initiatives that aim to address significant challenges faced by communities throughout the country. Each year, we carefully select and support causes that resonate with our congregation, fostering a sense of unity and shared purpose.

Disaster Relief Efforts

During times of natural disasters, we coordinate our efforts to provide immediate assistance to affected communities. From organizing relief drives to funding reconstruction projects, we stand in solidarity with those experiencing hardship and strive to help them rebuild their lives.

Supporting Veterans and Active Military Personnel

We honor and appreciate the sacrifices made by our veterans and active military personnel. Our church actively supports initiatives that provide essential services, healthcare, and emotional support to those who have served or are currently serving our country. Through our contributions, we aim to express our gratitude and ensure the well-being of those who protect our freedom.

International Aid and Outreach

As part of our global commitment, we extend our support to international causes that align with our faith and beliefs. Our international aid and outreach initiatives focus on empowering disadvantaged communities, promoting education, and advocating for social justice.

Clean Water Projects

We recognize that access to clean water is a basic human right. Our church partners with organizations that implement clean water projects in developing countries. These projects aim to improve health, sanitation, and overall quality of life for communities facing water scarcity and contamination.

Educational Support for Impoverished Communities

Education is a powerful tool for transformation. We collaborate with non-profit organizations to provide educational support, scholarships, and resources to impoverished communities around the world. By investing in education, we empower individuals to break free from the cycle of poverty and build a brighter future.

Advocacy for Social Justice

We believe in standing up for social justice and advocating for the rights of marginalized communities globally. Our church actively supports human rights organizations, promoting equality, diversity, and inclusivity. Through our advocacy efforts, we strive to create a more just and compassionate world.
