The Bellville Neighborhood Outreach Center is working with donors to make this Thanksgiving a special time for some families in need by providing them with a delicious Thanksgiving dinner at Dutch Heritage on Wednesday, November 23rd. The BNOC food pantry is currently assisting more than 600 people every month. It is our desire to provide each of these people with a special Thanksgiving dinner. This will require the financial assistance of many people. We ask that you please help us by making a financial contribution to the “Feed the Families – Thanksgiving Meal”.

The generous gifts and contributions of our friends enable the Bellville Neighborhood Outreach Center (BNOC) to implement its community support services. These gifts are received as part of a planned giving program.
Planned giving is a means by which a contributor directs the disposition of property during his or her lifetime. The contributor sees the benefits of a contribution and gains peace of mind in knowing that the donated property has been directed as he or she wishes. Unlike wills, which become a matter of public record after an individual passes, lifetime gifts remain private.

The Bellville Neighborhood Outreach Center has been blessed in many ways - wonderful community support, a new building, a new roof, a new HVAC system, continued funding support, and amazing volunteers. We believe that God will continue to bless our work of providing assistance to those in need throughout the Clear Fork Valley. We have much work yet to do as we prepare our new building to house the Food Pantry, Clothesline, and Activity Center. To ready our building for these services we will need many supplies. Following is our “Wish List” of items needed for the new building. Please share our wishes with others as we hope to have all Wish List items donated. Every item which we can obtain via donation will enable us to preserve our funds for assistance programs and services to help enrich the lives of Clear Fork Valley residents. To make your “Wish List” donation please contact the Bellville Neighborhood Outreach Center at contact.us@bnoc.org or call 419-886-8395.
