Volunteers are needed to help with their social media and website; and to provide life skills and literacy trainings. They offer space to organizations providing these.

Item donations: Clean clothing and household items can be brought to 14 Plaza Lane in Middlebury Center on Thursdays between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. Please bring them inside!

Financial contributions: Sister Jenny’s Outreach Center needs a walk-in freezer and the renovations that would require. Money also goes toward diesel fuel for the refrigeration truck, emergency counseling services for clients, and facility overhead—especially electricity.

For more information call (570) 944-0106 or mail checks made out to United Christian Ministries, Inc., to P.O. Box 25, Elkland, PA 16920.
