The mission of our relationship with Guilford Elementary School is to help meet the physical needs of Guilford students, families, and staff through service and generosity which we pray will lead to relationships in which we can share the Gospel.
By leveraging the talents and resources of many volunteers, we have the opportunity to positively affect lives of staff and families while sharing the hope that is within us.
Guilford Elementary has needs that no single organization can adequately fill. Over our many years of service we have listened to the leadership of the school and have spent time with them getting to know their needs and listening to them. We would love to have you join our team!
How can you help?
GIVE
Donate toward RBC Community Ministries, so we can provide supplies for the staff, along with providing other assistance as needed. You can give online by selecting “Community Ministries,” or drop a check in an offering box with “Community Ministries” in the memo line.
ENCOURAGING STAFF
Provide support and encouragement for teachers by helping with basic classroom needs, holiday gifts, notes of encouragement, lunches, prayer, and with MONTHLY SNACKS.
BACKPACK BUDDIES: PACKING AND DELIVERY (WEEKLY)
Fill bags with food provided by Blue Ridge Area Food Bank and delivery them to the school for distribution. We take bulk food and pack it in bags to be delivered for students to take home on weekends.
Contact Amy Farley at amyfarley@restonbible.org for more information on staff encouragement or Backpack Buddies.
BOX TOPS FOR EDUCATION
Another great way to help this school financially without it costing you anything is to participate in the Box Tops for Education program that General Mills sponsors. Just download the app and start scanning your receipts.
