Buckets of Hope NEED to be in by March 10, 2010. Please check the map page for your county and nearest church. If we have no church in your area, contact 814 695- 6101 for help on getting your bucket(s) picked up.

Please Note: If you can not find 2lb bags of dried black beans then 4- 1lb bags will work. Also, you can use dried red beans if black beans are not available. Please wrap the bottle of oil in a 2-gallon Ziplock bag in case of breakage. The rice goes in first, then the oil, on either side of the oil is where the sugar, and the peanut butter go, then the 2 boxes of spaghetti, followed by the beans and then the flour. Place the lid on and tape an envelope with $10 for shipping to Haiti. Approx cost of one bucket, plus shipping is $42-45.

Cans for New Churches!

You can help raise funds for new church starts, help clean the environment, and improve your health! How? Read on.

1) Gather aluminum cans from your home, friends, local businesses, or by taking walks along the roadway (helps clean the environment, and improves your health).

2) Take the cans to a local salvage yard and receive 30-50 cents a pound for them. (Right now we are getting .55 a lb up here.)

It takes approximately 27- 12 oz cans to make a pound. A 1,000,000 cans would equal 37,037 pounds! At 30 cents a pound that would equal $11,111 for church planting. 40 cents a pound would equal $14,814, and 50 cents a pound would equal $18,518.

3) Send the funds and the total pounds of cans turned in to:

CVBA, 276 Maple Hollow Road, Duncansville, PA 16635.

Help us reach our first million cans (which would equal 37,037 pounds) and then we will head for the next one!

To date 2/05/10 we have 3,707 lbs equaling 117,540 cans for a total of $1,864.44

Will you help us get funds for the 20 plus new works we need to start now?!
