Portage County Clothing Center

Volunteers from University Church assist the staff of the clothing center on the first Friday of each month from 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.. We help with the registration of shoppers, the control of merchandise, and the check out process. This is a very rewarding experience for our volunteers.

University Church of Kent, OH is seen volunteering at the local soup kitchen in Portage County.

Kent Social Services

Hot Meals: Volunteers from our church serve the Thursday night Hot Meals program every 9 weeks from 3:30-5:30 p.m. at Kent Social Services.

Lord’s Pantry: We strive to practice mindful shopping habits in our lives.  Each time we go grocery shopping we buy a few extra non-perishable goods.  We, then, place them in a box located at the front of our sanctuary each Sunday as part of our giving.  It’s not hard to do, but it makes a big difference for people in need in Kent.
