Episcopal Relief and Development Fund – This funding will strengthen and expand the capacity of all Episcopal congregations across Europe to respond to the refugee emergency caused by the violence in Ukraine. Refugee groups will be provided food, shelter, emergency supplies, trauma counseling and other humanitarian initiatives. Additional gifts will provide assistance to the victims of the wildfires in Hawaii.

New Hope Midcoast – This organization supports abused and battered women in the Boothbay region. The pandemic increased the need for supportive services for these vulnerable members of our community.
