For Love of Children, Inc. (F.L.O.C.) is a 100% volunteer agency. Their mission is to serve over 6,000 children in the greater Dayton area who are neglected, abused, in foster care, or who are in need of community resources.

In the past, a child who was taken from their home to go into foster care was given a trash bag to put their belongings in. How sad! And most of them do not have necessary items that they need when transitioning. We want each child to have what they need and something they can call their own.
One of the numerous things this organization does is provide duffel bags for the children.  So, through donations we receive, Beyond the Walls is putting together comfort bags for the children to put in their duffel bag.

Items needed for these bags are:

Amazon cards to purchase special bears and journals
Pens 
Socks
Blanket - (Baby blanket size through throw size)
Toothbrush & Toothpaste
Lotions - (Including baby lotion)

Baby Wipes

Deodorant

We are providing 30 bags a month to F.L.O.C.
Donations can be dropped off at the church on Sunday or M-F 9am-3pm. You may also email becky@germantownfcog.org if you are unable to bring your donation to the church.

If you are a parent or guardian needing resources such as baby formula, diapers or baby clothing and other items, we are also there to help you with those things as well.  Don’t lose hope…there is a place you can come to where you will find love, understanding and assistance no matter what the situation."

"Up to 40 women and children are welcomed as guests each night in our clean, safe shelter. More than a roof over their head, our shelter is a place that provides a sense of safety and security and surrounds women with support needed to work on the root problems that led to homelessness. Our Center for Women and Children is one of the few local shelters to welcome children. Poverty and housing instability are especially harmful during early childhood, often causing problems in school. To combat these problems, children in our shelter are provided tutors, mentors and transportation."

Beyond the Walls provide lunch for the residents every 3rd Wednesday of the month. We also do a Christmas Tea in December. If you would like to be involved with this ministry please let us know.
