Make an Impact
As we seek to be the church in a hurting world, the following are different ways to make a difference through service and mission in and beyond our community
Cherry Hill Food Pantry Collection
Anytime
The Cherry Hill Food Pantry is an important resource to combat food insecurity in our local community, and we have an ongoing collection of items to stock their shelves. Needs include:
nonperishable food items
laundry detergent
pasta sauce
pancake mix
pancake syrup
salad dressing
baked beans
Place items in our collection bin located in the breezeway by the church parking lot. You may also support the Cherry Hill Food Pantry through monetary donations made on our website or church app or by mailing a check to the church office with “Cherry Hill Food Pantry” on the memo line. Thank you for your continued support of our Mission Partner!
The Cherry Hill Food Pantry has an Amazon Wish List where you can purchase items and have them sent directly to the pantry. Click the button to access the list.
Backpack & School Supplies Collection
Back-to-school season can be stressful for families facing financial challenges—but together, we can help kids walk into the classroom with confidence and the supplies they need to thrive.
Haddonfield UMC is hosting a Backpack Drive to support children served by our mission partners: UrbanPromise, Acenda Health, the Neighborhood Center of Camden, and our partners in the Dominican Republic.
We are collecting new children’s backpacks and the following new, unopened school supplies for UrbanPromise, Acenda Health, and our Dominican Republic partners:
Notebooks
Folders
Pencils
Crayons
Glue sticks
Erasers
Highlighters
Lunch boxes
Hand sanitizer
Individual supply boxes (pencil cases)
Whiteboard markers
In addition, the Neighborhood Center of Camden is collecting new children’s socks and underwear.
How to Donate:
You can bring your items to church and place them in the marked collection bin in the Welcome Center. If you'd prefer to shop online, visit our Amazon Wishlist and have your donations shipped directly to the church, or you can make a monetary donation using “Mission—Backpack Drive” as your fund.
Let’s work together to make sure every child—near and far—starts school prepared and full of hope. Thank you for your generosity and support!

Monthly Communion Offering
As we gather at the Lord’s table to be fed, we are invited to share our abundance with our neighbors in need. Please bring non-perishable items—such as canned goods, pasta, or cereal—to worship and place them in the collection bins as you come forward for the elements. Baskets will be available in each worship space on the first Sunday of every month.
First Sunday of Every Month
Support UMCOR General Fund
Anytime
Support the work of The United Methodist Committee on Relief (UMCOR), the humanitarian relief and development arm of Global Ministries. UMCOR comes alongside those who suffer from natural or human-caused disasters – famine, hurricane, war, flood, fire or other events—to alleviate suffering and serve as a source of help and hope for the vulnerable. UMCOR provides relief, response and long-term recovery grants when events overwhelm a community’s ability to recover on their own. UMCOR also provides technical support and training for partners to address emerging and ongoing issues related to disaster relief, recovery, and long-term health and development.
