C3 CARES

C3 Cares is the umbrella brand for our local mission. It exists to help people in need, crisis or isolation in our local communities. We provide perishable and non perishable food items from our food bank, and warm winter essentials, to people linked with our C3 community and through our partners Pillars, Heart for Youth and the local schools we have relationships with. We also deliver care packs weekly to those who have had an illness, suffered loss or had the birth of a baby - a beautiful surprise for those in our church community who need some extra special love and attention. The testimonies of these packs arriving ‘just in time’, or when someone needed to know that ‘God cares’, is heart warming to hear and reveals the power of a simple gift of kindness.

There are many ways to be involved with C3 Cares:

• Contribute items towards a pack - drop to Ellerslie location through the week, or at any of our church locations on Sunday.

• Pay for a shop - Groceries ordered online and delivered straight to the home of those in need.

• Make or buy a meal and drop off on Sunday to our Ellerslie location.

• Join our packing and distribution team.

You can give by automatic payment via the bank account 03 0195 0236880 005 - Please reference ‘C3 Cares’.
