St. Thomas parishioners fill backpacks weekly for local children.

Advent Angel Tree Parishioners choose a gift tag off the Christmas tree and purchase the children’s or adults’ wished-for gifts.

Back Pack Pals collects donations and provides area school children in need with a back pack of food to take home for weekend meals.

Pet Pantry of Eastern North Carolina The Pet Food Pantry is the area’s first dedicated charitable pet food resource and was established in 2013 to help prevent the abandonment or surrender of animals when their families cannot afford to feed them.
