Activity 2

Caring cupboard - the pacc caring cupboard is a food pantry founded initially in 2001 by the children of the palmyra church of the brethren. It became a community food pantry operated by the palmyra church of the brethren in the summer of 2004. It is now in its fifth year of service. It is a non-profit venture of the palmyra area cooperating churches operated out of the former royer9s flower shop at 131 north railroad st., palmyra, penna. It is supported by donations of product and money from 33 churches, 27 businesses, 25 organizations, and an average of 60 individuals. Only the pacc care manager is a part-time paid employee of pacc; therefore, it is an extensive volunteer organization involving over 80 people who are serving the clients, stocking shelves, receiving product donations, and packaging product. Our number of clients is growing with the current average at 115 per week. This translates into helping over 1400 people a month with food

Activity 3

Other services include the palmyra counseling center. The first clients were welcomed to the palmyra area counseling center on september 11, 1991. In short order, pacc9s new counseling center had established linkage with the local school system9s counselors and administrators which resulted in collaborative efforts on referrals, parenting skills training, peer mediation training, support groups for children of separated or divorced parents, etc. Eighteen years later, the center is still a viable one in our community.
