EPC Fundraiser Benefitting Magic City Harvest

This year, the proceeds of the auction will go to... Magic City Harvest.
From their description of their mission:

Since 1995 Magic City Harvest, the perishable food recovery program of greater Birmingham, works to alleviate food insecurity, malnutrition and food waste through the free distribution of donated excess food to programs feeding those in need.

*Educate the community on hunger issues

*Encourage advocacy regarding hunger

*Create and/or support collaborative partnerships focused on these issues

Food is a basic need that is not met in our community. Each year, over 119,766 people in our community go hungry. And while the need is great, we are not deterred. Our food donations give love and hope for those trying to provide for themselves and their family. We can’t do this alone. Your support sustains our organization and allows us to provide food for our community partners on the frontline feeding our hungry neighbors.

Edgewood Presbyterian Church is an open and affirming congregation drawing its membership from throughout the Birmingham metropolitan area. This means we are welcome to worship and to bring our whole self to this community. Whatever our age, race, ethnicity, physical or mental ability, education, financial status, employment, marital status, sexual orientation, gender identity, or gender expression, there is a sacred space for each of us to participate fully in the life of this community of faith.

We joyfully proclaim the gospel of God's love. As a diverse and inclusive community of believers, we celebrate our unity in Christ. We believe we are called to compassionate service in our congregation, in our community, and in the world. We invite all who want to explore the great mystery of faith and paths of discipleship to join us.
