OTHER EVENTS

Christian Clearing House participates in fundraising and community outreach efforts throughout the year to support our mission and increase awareness of the services we provide.

Each year, Christian Clearing House coordinates Stuff the Bus, a community-wide school supply drive that helps local students start the school year prepared for success. Through donations from individuals, businesses, churches, and community organizations, we collect backpacks, school supplies, and other essential items for children whose families may be struggling financially.

Throughout the year, Christian Clearing House sends quarterly mailings to donors, supporters, churches, and community partners. These mailings provide updates on our programs, share stories of impact, highlight current community needs, and offer opportunities to support our mission. The continued generosity of our supporters through these campaigns helps us provide critical assistance to local individuals and families facing hardship.

We are always open to new fundraising ideas, sponsorship opportunities, and community partnerships that help strengthen our impact and expand our ability to serve those in need.

Support and Interview

Support volunteers assist with daily office operations by signing clients in, answering phones, and helping with general administrative tasks.

Interview responsibilities include working directly with clients to assess their needs, entering household information into the computer system, discussing each client’s financial situation, and determining how Christian Clearing House can best provide assistance.

Volunteers receive training to become familiar with CCH services as well as additional resources available through community agencies, enabling them to effectively support clients and connect them with appropriate assistance.

TRAINING OF VOLUNTEERS
Periodically, CCH conducts training sessions for incoming volunteers. After the training, new volunteers are asked to complete an application with best dates and times to work. Ongoing training sessions also take place with speakers from various agencies.  To get involved call 419-422-2222 .
