Cove Outreach & Benevolence

Your generosity in giving also impacts the lives of children and families here in our communities. From providing toy stores at Christmas to families in need of a little help to supporting children in the foster care system with the supplies they need to thrive, to providing disaster relief assistance, our Cove family has come together to show Jesus’ love in action.

MEETING THE NEED

Your support allows for our Benevolence Team to focus on caring for the needs within our Cove family. From making sure that no one leaves The Cove hungry, to being a support during financial emergencies and life’s needs, this team works behind-the-scenes to make sure that people have the resources they need to move forward.
