CGM October Update.jpg

It's October and we're still in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic. We're wrapping up the first 9 weeks of our virtual school program. Montgomery Publics Schools are providing optional in-person class learning for the second 9 weeks as well as virtual learning. Since most of the families we currently serve have opted in to returning to school, we'll be transitioning back into our regular after school program; mindful, of course, of following CDC guidelines.

Your continued support for CGM has helped provide stability for many families as they, too, learn to adjust to the pandemic. Some of you heard and helped get us a new oven to help provide hot lunches during our virtual school program. And some of you even heard about little Eva breaking her last pair of glasses and you helped her get new glasses! Thank you for being good neighbors by helping us be good neighbors. By connecting resources and impacting youth, we really can change the city towards a better future for all its residents.

We continue to covet your prayers to effectively and safely run our after school program as well as minister to our community during this pandemic. Together, we are changing the odds here in west Montgomery!
