We are so excited for our Annual Ingathering event on November 15 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Churches will assemble buckets before bringing them to the ARUMC Disaster HUB for Ingathering. The HUB is located in the building behind Wesley UMC in Conway (2310 E Oak St, Conway, AR).
Assembly Line
The Assembly Line at the Hub runs from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Our goal is to pack 100 cleaning kits. These newly created kits will be in addition to the ones that churches drop off through the day.
We will have some giveaways and snacks for volunteers.
We are also asking for tarps to be donated, size 16′ x 20′.
