Furniture ministry hopes to build storage barn
GREENFIELD — Hancock County Community Foundation has offered a matching 1:1 grant to Faith Baptist Church to build a storage barn for the Furniture Ministry.
Love INC works closely with the church by communicating needs and identifying those willing to donate appliances and furniture. The storage units are full; Love INC is turning items away that there will be a need for in the community later.
If you would like to contribute to this “barn raising” and have your $1 matched, send a check to the church at 1489 E. County Road 600N, Greenfield, IN 46140.
For more information, call 317-369-0042 or call Love INC at 317-468-6300.
