Community Partner Serving Opportunity

crossfire ministries

Did you know that Woodmen partners with several other non-profit agencies in El Paso County to help support them in the outreach they do in the community? One of those agencies is Crossfire Ministries. Crossfire serves by providing a no-cost grocery store that provides neighbors with perishable and non-perishable food items. With the cost of food rising, Crossfire has seen an increase in neighbors coming to shop. With that, they are in need of more weekday volunteers to help assist the shoppers. If you are available to serve on Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday during the day, don't hesitate to contact Amy at volunteer@crossfireministries.org for more details.
