Waco

One of our goals as a faith community is to be an intentional neighbor in this community, and to help those in our immediate vicinity. We have three local organizations which we work alongside to empower those in our community, and to support the work the Lord has given them to do: Cesar Chavez Middle School and Jesus Said Love.

CESAR CHAVEZ PARTNERSHIP

Cesar Chavez Middle School (CCMS) is our oldest community partner, and through the years we have provided mentors, helped with tutoring, held soccer camps, participated in teacher encouragement, and provided support during STARS Testing.   In 2024/25, we will be helping with recognizing students for outstanding work, mentoring, and teacher encouragement . If you would like to be involved in our work with CCMS, please email toph@ubcwaco.org .  

ARROW CHILD AND FAMILY MINISTRIES

Arrow’s mission statement is: helping kids and strengthening families. They have a variety of programs to help kids in the foster system, and to support families who are fostering or looking to foster. UBC partners with Arrow to help provide backpacks for children as they start the school year, provide Christmas gifts for parents to select during the holidays, and we also look to find ways we can volunteer with Arrow as they have need. If you have any questions, please contact toph@ubcwaco.og. For more information, click here: Arrow

THE COVE

The Cove is a non-profit that works with homeless high-school teens in Waco. The Cove provides a number of services: tutoring, laundry facilities, access to mental health care, meals, transportation, and help transitioning after HS. We will help support the Cove financially, volunteer opportunities as they arise, and with special projects. For more information, click here: The Cove.
