In 2023, the CCCC Baby Pantry provided close to 31,000 diapers to our clients, and we are resolved to keep supporting our community. Nevertheless, the demand for diaper aid has increased significantly this year, and your support is crucial.
Our inventory of diapers in Sizes 5 and 6 is getting low, but we are certain we can replenish it with your assistance.
You can make a difference by making a diaper or check donation to the CCCC Baby Pantry at our address: CUMC, 1690 Riedel RD, Crofton, MD 21114. You will be glad to know that even a $5 donation can buy twelve diapers, ensuring that we can meet the needs of families in our community.&nbsp;

We are an equal opportunity provider, and religious activity is not a requirement to participate in our assistance programs. We are dedicated to serving families and individuals in the local community, particularly those with children aged five and under, by providing free baby supplies in a loving and positive setting where everyone is treated with respect and dignity.
We appreciate your continued support of our community efforts. Your generous contributions are needed to replenish our diaper supply and sustain our assistance to AACO families in need.

Bacon Ridge Natural Area, Hawkins Road Trailhead, Crownsville, Maryland

<h4>Protect the Health of YOUR Local Forest: Join Scenic Rivers Land Trust at Bacon Ridge Natural Area in Crownsville to spend a morning removing harmful invasive plants from along the trails!</h4>
Scenic Rivers’ Healthy Forests Program engages community volunteers to help protect the long-term vitality of our largest conservation easement located within Bacon Ridge Natural Area.
Our May 2024 workday will focus on plants that are easily visible in late winter/early spring. These aggressive invaders threaten vegetation at all levels of the forest from the ground up into the forest canopy.
<h5>Event Details</h5>
Volunteers will be working on designated trail sections to remove specific invasive plant species.
Volunteers will be trained in how to identify and remove these plants.
Work gloves and tools can be provided by Scenic Rivers, though volunteers are welcome to bring their own gear.
To participate, volunteers must:
<ul><li>Be 16 years or older to attend without a supervising adult. Volunteers age 10 to 15 may attend with an accompanying adult(s) to supervise work;</li><li>Be able to hike up to 1 mile to get to designated work areas.</li></ul>
We must have at least 5 registered volunteers for the workday to proceed. So, be sure to invite some friends!
Controlling invasive species infestations is a big job and we’ll be happy to have as much help as possible!
