HAPPY SUMMER!


We're ending the summer with a BIG move!


Don't worry—we're not going far. You'll find us just a few doors down at 503 Race Street, Cambridge, MD. Our new location gives us more office space, better heating and cooling, and lower overhead so more of our resources can go where they belong: serving people. As an added bonus, we'll be right next door to one of our supportive church partners, Grace Methodist Church.


We'll be closed between August 17 and 30 to make the big move, but we'll be open again on August 31st for our monthly Community Dinner (read more below). Please keep us in your prayers for a smooth move.


Read on to find out about our big GALA coming up and spotlights on those who help us do everything around here!

VOLUNTEER SPOTLIGHT:

Elnora Vaughn

My sister told me about One Mission. My ministry is outreach and I enjoy working with people so I signed up to be a volunteer.


I enjoy fulfilling a need and seeing the appreciation and thankfulness of others. It's a rewarding feeling.


It's my pleasure to work with such friendly people and cultures. There's always something you can learn from each other and unity is the key.

 

Thank You to Our Volunteers and Donors!

A huge THANK YOU to Burke & Herbert Bank for their recent generous donation of $5,000 to support OMC.


We appreciate your support and help in the fight to combat food insecurity in Dorchester County!

Thank you to WellTogether for partnering with us to bring their mobile health clinic to Cambridge on July 6th.

Thanks to the Men’s Group at Christ Church Cambridge, The Great Choptank Parish for providing bagged lunches in July.

Thanks Dorchester County Health Dept for visiting in July to help with resources for our guests.

 
 

Thank You for Helping us Celebrate Milestones
