Each year at the Rally, our attendees have generously supported a chosen local charity. CCS (Church Community Services) was created 48 years ago as a program to address issues of poverty in the Elkhart Community. Their mission: CCS is a faith based agency helping people of Elkhart County weather life’s storms and build more secure futures through emergency assistance and intensive job and life skills training. Today, over 50 churches work together to support programs that benefit: families, conducting men’s and women’s training sessions, food bank, vegetable gardens, etc. Their website is
www.churchcommunityservices.org if you would like to learn more. They also sell gift baskets, soup/cookie mixes and warm hand-made mittens.
They are in specific need of the following items:
Toilet paper
