Our January Volunteer of the Month is Maggie Keehner.   Maggie has served in the Respite Quarters since it was opened.  She is there every Tuesday, sometimes staying all day to fill in when there is a shortage of volunteers.    Maggie is a kind and caring volunteer who always go the extra mile when taking care of the residents in the Respite Quarters.  Thank you so much Maggie.  

We would like to send a huge thank you to Mrs. Elizabeth S. Marrow and Minister Tracey Ross, M.Div. with the Women's Baptist Home and Foreign Missionary Convention of North Carolina . They held a Convention on Saturday, January 11, 2020, and each member from the churches that attended donated everything that is listed on our wish list. Thank you to all that participated in this wonderful blessing....

It has been said many times and many ways, but let us say it again, Volunteers are the backbone and life blood of Community Crossroads Center.  The Shelter would not be able to operate without the efforts of so many that give so much of themselves.  Thank you. Here is a sampling of the Year of the Volunteer 2019.

'Tis the Season of Sharing and Giving and Elizabeth Iannace was filled with the spirit.  When it was her birthday she requested that her party guests bring gifts for the children at the Shelter rather than for her.  Then she and her family wrapped the gifts and delivered them on Christmas Eve.  What a wonderful way to share the Spirit of Christmas!

LaMare and his sister, Chloe, completed a Winter Service Project that will help to serve the citizens of Pitt County. Thank you LaMare and Chloe for your generous support of our shelter. We love to see our younger generation showing so much compassion for those less fortunate. There is always time to celebrate a triumph in the fight against chronic homelessness, but in order for us to co...

Leadership Group C brought some elbow grease and worked outside cleaning the grounds around the Shelter. Th...

Congratulations to Jim Bryant, our December Volunteer of the Month.  Jim has worked in the respite room since the day it opened (almost 2 years) and has been instrumental in coordinating volunteerism and donations from the Rotary Club of Greenville.

The Moyewood Senior Citizen Club visited the Shelter today and brought some much needed items.  They donated clothes, toiletries, socks, gloves, hats, scarves, paper plates, and backpacks.  Now that the weather is getting colder, coats, hats, gloves, scarves and long underwear are in great demand at our Community Clothing Closet. Donations such as these help the Shelter serve the Residents with...

A team of ECU students, led by Jaclyn Burrows, from Mrs. Winkler's BUSI 2200 class had to conduct a community project of their choosing and prepare a presentation on what they did.  They decided to do a Supply Drive for CCC and requested personal care items, paper goods, and warm clothing.   They also hosted a GoFundMe page to raise money to help purchase additional items to add to those collected...

The Community Clothes Closet has two new clothes racks provided by the Greenville Rotary Club.   These racks were very needed for the overflow of generous donations of clothing that we are receiving.  The winter coats that we are currently collecting, which are heavy and need strong support have found a place to hang with the three heavy-duty clothes racks donated by the Rotary Club.   The Greenvi...
