The Black Bin Appeal
A challenge to be servants to those in need in our locality.

 

Initially launched during Christmas 2009 and relaunched for Lent 2010, the Black Bin in now a permanent fixure at St Ives Methodist Church following requests to keep it going!

 

 

The Black Bin appeal is an opportunity to support local families who are really struggling with the challenges of everyday life. There are families here, in our area, in and around St Ives, struggling to feed and clothes themselves. Circumstances can be difficult and help is not always easy to come by or ask for.

 

The church is being challenged to provide cleaning products, baby items and personal hygiene items for local families in need, which will be gratefully distributed by local social services personnel in the area.

 

If you’d like to contribute, please buy some extra items with your usual shopping and add them to the Black Bin at church whenever the building is open - the bin will be there throughout Lent. If you’re not able to get to church you can always donate just £2 with your debit or credit card by clicking here and something will be purchased and added to the bin on you behalf. Your donation will be handled anonymously.
