We listen, we act, we care for the welfare of children
Emergency Needs
WCCB caseworkers notify WCF when families have an emergency need for:
Clothing
Beds
Diapers
School supplies
Emergency items and hygiene supplies when children are removed from their homes
WCF responds to these requests by supplying the needed items.
We have programs in place to manage purchase and delivery of these emergency materials, in conjunction with community organizations such as Plato’s Closet, Christian Layman thrift shop, and generous donors.
The WELCA quilting group of Trinity Evangelical Lutheran Church of Latrobe donated 40 quilts for our needy children in December 2021. Linda McDowell, who heads the group, displays an example of their handiwork.
