FUMCV continually supports the New Scotland Food Pantry with donations of food and service. To contribute, drop off canned goods and/or dry goods such as paper towels or soap at the office basket or call the office to volunteer.

FUMCV is involved in many aid and relief efforts, such as helping victims of natural disasters rebuild regionally or in other states, or sending help to areas hit by natural disasters.

While some of our church tithing goes to local charities and efforts, a portion gets passed up to the United Methodist Church General Conference where it is used for regional, national and even international charitable efforts.

In support of the “fair trade” movement that benefits farmers in developing nations, on the third Sunday of each month, we offer products from the Equal Exchange organization, such as coffee, chocolate, and olive oil, for sale at our “Coffee Time” gathering in our community room after the worship service.

Equal Exchange’s mission is to build long-term trade partnerships that are economically just and environmentally sound, to foster mutually beneficial relationships between farmers and consumers and to demonstrate, through our success, the contribution of worker co-operatives and Fair Trade to a more equitable, democratic and sustainable world.
