Others Initiative


What is the "Others Initiative"?  This is all about the community coming together to help charities do the work they have been called to do.  KCFY has a voice in our community and we want to effectively activate the body of Christ into action!  That means meeting with our local non-profits to find out what it is that they need, and then rallying the community to make it happen.  We'll be posting a schedule soon so check back!

2018 - 4TH QTR. PROJECT


 

50 for 50 Project

KCFY is teaming up with the 50 For 50 Project once again this year because we have the same goal in mind...and that is to meet needs here in Yuma County.  Will you help get 50 non-profit organizations and schools the items they need.  Adopt one of the organizations by clicking right here.

And, specifically, KCFY is adopting one of the organizations with the help of our listeners. We've chosen Casa de la Esperanza as they are helping abandoned and orphaned children in Mexico.  The specific need right now is for Children Shoes Size 6 thru teens Size 6.  Please bring new pairs of shoes in these sizes to the KCFY studios 1921 S. Rail Ave., then we'll take them to the grand gathering on Oct 27th!

 2017 - 3RD QTR. PROJECT


 

Fill The Food Pantry - A Huge Success!

Our first "Others Initiative" project has been New Life Pregnancy Services.  They were wanting to provide a food pantry as part of their ministry to young women who are in crisis pregnancy. Often times these women are struggling to keep food on the table and New Life can now offer to meet that need and you made it happen!

 

Sheryl Van Horn & Adriana Mrofka from New Life Pregnancy with General Manager Greg Myers sharing this picture with you so you could see just how generous our KCFY Listeners are!  Great job and THANK YOU!!!
