The Community Christian Service Agency (CCSA) had a banner year in 2015. Between their two locations, the family center in Clairemont, and our local Joyce Snyder Center here in Pacific Beach, CCSA served over 26,600 individuals which was a 6% growth in numbers from the previous year. Over 4,350 households were served in the Clairemont area and over 7,700 meals were distributed in Pacific Beach. In addition, nearly 32,000 items of clothing, 466 backpacks for schoolchildren, and over 375 holiday meal baskets were distributed in Clairemont, and more than 14,000 items of clothing in Pacific Beach. 2016 is anticipated to be an even more active year.
Obviously, the good work that CCSA does is only possible through the generous support of many committed individuals and organizations of which PB UMC is a proud member! We fundraise, with a yearly offering. We put together school backpacks, and we organize holiday meal baskets. And now, we have an opportunity to support CCSA’s mission in a fun and healthy manner.
The annual Hunger Walk, to benefit CCSA will be held on Saturday, April 23, 8 am, at De Anza Cove in Mission Bay Park. You may preregister using the button below, or show up on the day of the event. Before the day of the event please remember to ask your friends, family, or neighbors to sponsor you, by making a cash or check donation towards CCSA, and bring those donations to the event to turn in. The Hunger Walk is one of the biggest fundraisers for CCSA, so please, help them surpass last year’s total. And enjoy scenic Mission Bay at the same time.
