NORTH ADAMS, Mass. — This Valentine's Day, and throughout the month of February, the First Congregational Church North Adams (FCCNA) invites Berkshire County residents and friends to contribute to its "Share the Love" challenge. 

 

For every dollar received, FCCNA will donate 50 cents to help three local institutions—Berkshire Food Project, Louison House, and the Al Nelson Friendship Center Food Pantry.

 

All proceeds from the campaign will be split evenly among the three recipient organizations.

 

In February 2022, FCCNA raised $5,100 for its challenge; the next year, it raised $5,550. This year the church is setting an ambitious goal of $7,500 to demonstrate its commitment to

Neighbors Helping Neighbors in 2024.

 

Checks should be made payable to First Congregational Church North Adams, with "Share the Love" in the memo line, and sent to FCCNA–Missions, 134 Main St., North Adams, MA 01247. Contributions are tax-deductible and will be acknowledged.
