The purpose of the Caring Committee is to nurture the sense of belonging to and participation in a caring community by sending messages and tokens of support to, and coordinating assistance for, members and friends of the Fellowship who are going through milestone life events. This may include, but is certainly not limited to, births/new adoptions, deaths, and illness.

The Caring Committee is divided by regions into Care Rings, with committee members coordinating outreach to people within their own region. Committee members may provide the support directly, or organize a larger regional or Fellowship response (depending on the need). In the past, the Caring Committee has provided “casserole brigade” services, volunteered time, and sent tokens (cards, flowers, etc.) to show our community support.

If you have such an event in your life, or know of someone who does, please contact Justine Levine, who coordinates the group at justine.h.levine at gmail.com. The committee always strives to balance offering assistance while respecting individuals need for privacy.

Wanted: a few thoughtful, caring FUUFHC members who could spare an hour here and there to help out their fellow FUUFHC’ers! Being a member of the Caring Committee is an easy and fun way to get to know people from the fellowship who live in your neighborhood, not to mention lend a hand (or a hot meal, or a ride) to someone who needs one. Interested? Contact Justine Levine.
