Charities
Stop Hunger NowStop Hunger Now works to end world hunger. This program sends packaged meals to countries that are in need of food, and for every $0.29 donated, you can package one meal. Conway United Methodist Church hosts Stop Hunger Now by raising money and gathering our congregation together to help package these meals that will be sent out. Some of the money that we are raising will be put towards hosting another Stop Hunger Now event at our church.

Reach UpReach Up is an after school program that we host at Conway UMC for middle school students at Conway Middle School that are failing. We have high school and college students that tutor the middle schoolers in order to pass the grade that they’re in. We also send them home with a “weekend bag” full of food to ensure that they have meals each day.
