Each year at Overflow, we collect an offering to help others in need. Between 2011-2019 with your generous donations, we have raised almost $450,000 for the Life Campaign at Overflow events. This money has supported a school feeding program in Bangladesh (feeding thousands of kids!), and has built numerous water wells in Bangladesh.

In 2019 alone, we raised $35,210.16!

In 2022 we raised $15,573.19 for First Nations Ministries.

In 2023 we raised $14,266.89 in partnership with ERDO for the crisis following the earthquake in Türkiye & Syria.

This year at Overflow, we are excited to be partnering with the ERDO to help refugee and internally displaced peoples.

THE CAUSE: Refugee and Internally Displaced Peoples

Thirsty, hungry and often without hope, refugees and internally displaced peoples (IDPs) arrive in temporary camps every day. Escaping with the little they can carry, they share a dream of freedom, access to food and the comfort of a safe home for themselves and their children. Displaced families often do not have their basic needs met. They have little food, unclean water and insufficient shelter. If they live in an area with a cold season, they need resources to prepare for winter. Children living in displacement or refugee camps often do not have a place of safety or access to an education. The physical and emotional toll on children and their families is catastrophic.

OUR GOAL

This year our goal is to help support ERDO in their efforts to help refugees and internally displaced peoples and our GOAL TOTAL IS: $20,000+

HOW CAN YOU HELP

This year we will be taking up an offering during the Saturday morning session at all of our sites. And while the majority of funds are raised at Overflow during this time, we would love to partner with individuals and youth groups who would pledge to raise money for this cause from now until May 25th! All donations will be accepted virtually and in person where you can donate through a link that will be made available, text2give, through our POS or by cash during our Saturday morning session.

HERE ARE SOME IDEAS:

  • Set aside $1 out of every $4 you fundraise to go to Overflow Gives.

  • Join with another youth group (or your city or section) to work together.

  • If you are having a rally, designate the offering to go to Overflow Gives.
