CAREPORTAL
The Missions Committee enrolled the church in the CarePortal, a website that connects child welfare professionals with churches who care about children in crisis and want to help.
It works like this: The DCS worker posts a Request on behalf of a child/family with a summary of the circumstances and the item(s) requested. A church can then respond that it will provide all or some of the things requested. We also partnered with AZ Helping Hands (AHH), a nonprofit that serves foster kids, providing, among other things, twin beds and cribs (complete with linens, pillow and frame). AHH does not deliver, but thanks to member Johnny (“Have truck will travel”) Ware and his partners, we do.
You will be hearing more about CarePortal and the many ways you can participate. While beds are the #1 request on CarePortal, there are many other needs identified, such as clothing, diapers, kitchen ware, food, furniture, appliances, laptops, etc.
You’ll be told how to let us know you would like to help fulfill a request by contributing an item, praying for the family, participating in a delivery, making a monetary donation, etc.
CarePortal’s slogan is Connected by Technology, Powered by People, Led by God.
