TERRE HAUTE, Ind. (WTWO/WAWV)– A local church held a fundraiser Sunday evening to support youth in the community.
Maryland Community Church’s 10th annual student missions fundraiser looks to raise money that will go towards allowing families access to mission trips and other programs.
Sunday’s event included a meal, as well as a number of auctions for the dozens on hand. Student pastor Vince Chan said this is an important night for the organization each year.
“We come and raise funds to our students, to provide scholarships and go to camps as well as our local missions project,” Chan said. “That has served the city and Hope Week so that if there’s ever a student who says their financial unable to go, we say, ‘no worries, we go ahead and take care of it.'”
In 2023, the event raised over $38,000 and the hope was to raise even more in 2024.
