A Community of Caring

How can you join Fairlawn-West to help

others in our community?

GapPacks

GapPacks for Resnik CLC

Our members collect nonperishable foods and pack them into backpacks for food insecure children at Judith A. Resnik Community Learning Center, our next door neighbor. We always can use donations of items such as single-serve fruit cups, soup and peanut butter. We also need help with packing and distribution.

Habitat for

Humanity

Habitat for Humanity

We support our local Summit County chapter of this international ministry and help make homeownership a reality for families. Twice a year we take part in build days in which the congregation gathers at a job site to work on a new home.

Faithful

Feeders

Faithful Feeders

Members assist in providing food for various church events, special services and occasional meals for the housebound or convalescent.

Family

Promise

Family Promise

Our church supports parents and children involved in this program that keeps families intact even as they deal with instability. We collect items monthly such as towels or kitchen goods and also provide meals.

Akron Safety Town

Akron Safety Town

Our congregation was instrumental in starting this important safety program for children entering kindergarten in Akron Public Schools. Each summer, students enjoy a free week of fun and games that help them learn important safety lessons.
