Giles County Christian Service Mission Inc

The mission provided emergency assistance in the form of direct payment to vendors for rent and utilities that helped numerous families. The mission facility houses an office for community action of the new river valley. Their agent coordinates assistance payments with other sources of funding. These instances of assistance prevented utility disconnects and/or evictions.

The mission food pantry distributed nutritional assistance to our clients. In addition, senior food boxes sourced through the commodity supplemental food program are distributed each month.

The mission manages the giles county angel tree program to provide christmas gifts for children of low income families. These gifts are primarily donated toward specific wish lists adopted by donors. Funds are also donated to us to purchase items where donated gifts do not adequately address the wish list. We organize the effort and assemble the gifts. This program provided gifts to numerous children and elderly adults in local health care facilities. The mission maintains a restricted fund to reimburse public educators for materials donated to needy students.
