Mount Carmel Guild
For over 104 years, Mount Carmel Guild of Trenton has offered relief for individuals and families experiencing both chronic and temporary personal crises. Our two core programs: Home Health Nursing and Community Support, help sustain the good health and well-being of low-income seniors and reduce food insecurity among Mercer County residents.
We remain committed to continuing these FREE programs and are adapting each to the growing social and economic challenges within our community. Our annual fundraising gala was designed to help sustain these programs and are supported by the kindness and generosity of our Mission Members, volunteers and community partners.
About the Event
The implementation of our first fundraising gala some 29 years ago was in recognition of the growing need for support in the provision of food, clothing and other basic care items. It acknowledges growing trends in food insecurity and food insufficiency across noted demographics and seeks a sustainable response. Our food pantry provides support for approximately 1,450 households each month and several units of care for the elderly under our Home Health Nursing Program. Our goal of $65,000.00 this year will ensure that individuals and families obtain nutritious supplies of food and other forms of support that can build a stronger and more productive citizenry.
Throughout the night, there will be numerous opportunities to make your contribution such as through our silent auction, restaurant raffle or a donation of any kind while you fellowship and celebrate with our honorees and other attending guests.
By joining with us, you become apart of the Guild's Mission Membership; a growing network of individuals and organizations, whose efforts help meet meet our obligation to thousands of care receivers across Trenton and wider Mercer County.
