Our Mission: To provide a place where people can “Give back.”
About Us
Giving Back is a project of the Community Services Department of the St. Thomas Seventh Day Adventist Church and ADRA (Adventist Development and Relief Agency). It is a place where those in most need of something to do can come and give back to the community. There are three areas of service: baking, children’s quilt making and handyman services. Read more…
