We're going ALL OUT to support Afghan refugees who are relocating to the Raleigh area over the coming weeks. Part of that support includes gathering and donating basic necessities that these families will be in desperate need of. From September 9-19, we're asking for all donations to be brought to the church and dropped off in the Gathering Place next to the Library. Please refer to the information below to see what you're responsible for donating in support of these efforts.

Sunday School Donations

If you're part of a Sunday School class, your group is responsible for donating specific kinds of supplies. In case you don't know what your class is responsible for, please check below. **Detailed donation lists and suggestions can be found at the bottom of this page**

  • PAPER PRODUCTS: Next to Heaven, Harmony Fidelis, Celia Middleton, Bowers, Nurturing Faith, Journeyers.
  • NON-PERISHABLE FOOD: Intergenerational Co-Ed, New Life, Men's Intergenerational, Women's Intergenerational, Young Adults

If possible, please buy donations in BULK SIZE as the average family can run through these supplies very quickly. 

Church-Wide Donations

If you're not part of a Sunday School class, we would love for you to help out by donating DIAPERS/WIPES (all sizes) or BOTTLED WATER. 

Financial Donations

If you aren't able to go out and buy supplies to donate, we would still appreciate your support by making a financial contribution. Here's how you can give:

  1. CHECK/CASH: please include the memo, "All Out for Afghans"
  2. ONLINE: visit foresthills.org/give, click the "give" button, and under "please select" choose "All Out for Afghans."
