Combined Community Services (CCS) announced the launch of its $40,000 in 40 Days campaign, a fundraising effort designed to commemorate 40 years of serving Kosciusko County residents.
The campaign runs from March 24 to May 2, with the goal of raising $40,000 to support the organization’s essential programs and inspire ongoing monthly giving commitments, according to a news release from CCS.
“For four decades, CCS has been a pillar of support for individuals and families in our community, providing critical services such as food assistance, mentoring programs, utility support and resources that promote self-sufficiency,” said Steve Barrett, board president at CCS. “However, rising costs and economic uncertainty have increased the demand for our services. This campaign is a rallying cry to ensure we continue meeting those needs.”
CCS is calling on community members, businesses and organizations to participate by making donations and spreading the word. A contribution of just $40 can make a meaningful impact, providing vital assistance to those in need, the release states.
