this is what we do!
Impacting Owings Mills, Baltimore & Beyond
Thanksgiving is a season for gathering around the table, sharing a meal, and making memories with the people we love. But for some families, putting food on the table can be a challenge. That’s why Uproar Church and UCARE are preparing to bring support, generosity, and a little extra love to families throughout our communities this Thanksgiving.
Last year, families across our neighborhoods experienced more than a holiday meal. They experienced connection, laughter, and the reminder that they are seen, valued, and remembered. This year, we’re continuing that mission, reaching beyond the walls of the church to help meet practical needs and make a meaningful difference in the lives of our neighbors.
Because this is what we do. We show up. We serve. We love our city.
And we can’t do it alone.
Every act of generosity helps make outreach possible. Whether you give financially, volunteer your time, or partner with UCARE, you have an opportunity to help us extend the love of God in a tangible way this holiday season.
Help us make this Thanksgiving brighter for families in our communities. Together, we can meet needs, lift burdens, and remind our neighbors that they matter. Let's continue to cause an uproar and make an impact.
