Anna Kate has been looking for ways to help others during the Covid-19 pandemic. She researched local organizations that may need support and found Community Crossroads Center. She spent a day baking treats she loves and we advertised a bake sale on Facebook. Through the generosity of our friends and family, Anna Kate was able to raise $650. Thank you Anna Kate for your generous donation. &nb...

Locally in Greenville and Pitt County, Community Crossroads Center, the area’s only emergency shelter for the homeless is calling on those in the community who are able to please donate to the Community Crossroads Center’s COVI...

Dear friends, Community Crossroads Center simply could not carry out it's important mission without your generosity and support. In 2019, we provided services to 629 different residents, including 60 children. You helped us serve our residents over 57,000 meals last year. In these perilous times of COVID-19, we need your support now more than ever. The health, safety and well-being of our re...

Thank you to the families of a small Christian Community Group at Saint Peter Catholic Church.  They made sandwiches and goodies for sack lunches and brought them to the Shelter.  The Residents receive breakfast and dinner at the Shelter but they don't always have a lunch when they leave for the day.  This gift from these families is very appreciated.  Thank you. WANT TO BECOME PART OF OUR DEDICA...

Thank you to Amelia Bain and to her students from the TRiO First Gen Fellows Mentoring Program for donating books to the children at the Shelter.  They collected books for children from Pre-K to Middle School and then sorted them by age groups and bagged them up.  A lot of our families come into the Shelter without things like books to enjoy.   These will be enjoyed by the children that come into ...

The free Community Clothes Closet at CCC had a Leap Year Winter Giveaway to clear out some inventory to make room for more inventory and it was a great success.  In part to the help of groups that came to come and take the clothes outside and setup and then pack it up, take it back inside and put it all away.  Thank you to Ben Layton and the group he brought from MCEC, Kurt Garner and the Future B...

Volunteers of the month are the members of First Presbyterian Church in Greenville.  These kind and generous folks donated the money for the kitchen in the new shelter, have participated in clothing drives, and have served dinner here once-twice a month for well over 10 years. Many thanks for their great kindness and generosity.  #GoLoGreenville

Thank you to the ECU Women's Ultimate Frisbee Club for preparing sack lunches for the Residents to take with them when the leave in the morning.  They put together an assembly line and with teamwork put together 100 lunches.  Thank you ladies for volunteering your time and the items to make the lunches. #GoLoGreenville WANT TO BECOME PART OF OUR DEDICATED VOLUNTEERS OR HELP IN ANOTHER WAY? DONATE...

The operation of the Shelter depends on Volunteers and ECU is very well represented at the Shelter by so many students that want to come and give their time providing service.  The effort of Volunteers at the Shelter is priceless!  We could never put a price-tag on it and, thank goodness, we don't have to. Last week we had students from the ECU School of Dental Medicine (first picture) and the ...
