Ways to Help and Volunteer

The fires in our community have reminded us how quickly life can be disrupted—and how much we need one another in moments like this. As a church, we want to respond not only with prayer, but with practical love, caring for our neighbors in the ways we can.

Below, you’ll find ways to give, donate supplies, serve, and support those affected by the fires. We’ll continue updating this page as needs arise and new opportunities become available.

Please continue praying for those who have lost homes or possessions, those who have been displaced, the firefighters and first responders serving our community, and everyone working to help our neighbors recover.

1. Serve & Donate Through the Southside Food Pantry

Our food pantry has been listed as a resource for people impacted by the fires, which means people in our community may be coming to Southside for help.

You can support this ministry by donating non-perishable food or serving at one of our Saturday food distributions.

You can sign up to serve here:

3. Give to Families in Other Local Churches

Several local churches that Southside cooperates with through the Inland Northwest Cooperative have families who have been impacted by the fires, including some who have lost their homes.

If you would like to help, you can give to Southside’s Fire Relief Fund. These funds will be used to directly support our brothers and sisters in Christ who are in need.
