College Student Care Packages

College Care Packages are sent out near the end of the Fall & Spring semester each year. Find out what you can do to support this ministry!

We need donations for the Spring semester! Bring clearly labeled items to the church no later than 4/9/2023.

The end of a semester for college students means that a break is soon coming....after getting through the exams! Every Fall and Spring at semester's end, we send a care package full of goodies to each to let our college students know they have our prayers and support for success during this stressful time. If your student received a package in the fall of last year and has not changed addresses, you do not need to do anything for him/her to receive this semester's package. However, if your student moved or did not receive one and you would like to add him/her to our list, please email your student’s mailing address to Melodee Konde: konde@swbell.net

You can support this effort by donating food or small school supplies - drop off clearly labeled donations (labeled: College Care Packages) at MUMC on Sunday mornings during any of our worship services (drop them in the food pantry collection bins/baskets). You may also bring clearly marked donations on Wednesdays between 9-11 a.m. and place it in the food pantry collection bin by the east side double doors. We typically send about 20 boxes. See some pre-packaged food item suggestions below.
