Time is running out to help.

The congregation of West End Baptist Church on Dabney Drive continues to be a collection point for the N.C. Baptist Children’s Homes. Volunteers are one hand to accept donations of food, non-perishable household items and gift cards.

Anyone can make a donation to the Food Roundup. Volunteers will be at the church, located at 619 Dabney Drive, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.  through Wednesday.

Contact the church at 252.438.6306, Will Flowers at 252.432.0787, or Jerry Parrish at 252.492.6353 for more information.

The most needed items are:

• Paper products (paper towels, toilet paper, napkins, Kleenex)
• Hand sanitizer
• Clorox wipes
• Household cleaning products (i.e. bleach, Comet, Lysol spray and wipes, Clorox spray, Windex, Pinesol, Pledge, Tilex, etc.)
• Canned fruits
• Fruit juice (apple, orange, grape, cranberry)
• Laundry detergent

Gift cards will especially help children pick out clothing that fits and that they want to wear.

Please don’t miss this opportunity to show these children God’s love by providing gift cards, food and needed items.
