Cause of the Month
Acts 20:35
​​
"In everything I showed you that by working hard in this manner you must help the weak and remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that He Himself said, 'It is more blessed to give than to receive.'"
​
At American Lutheran Church, we believe in being active members of our Community. All year long we support a cause of the Month and give our love, service and generosity to help make a difference in the lives of everyone in our Community.​​
Access Period
Access Period is a nonprofit that provides free period products to anyone that needs them in Nebraska. Our mission is to provide immediate relief to people experiencing period poverty, while creating systems and relationships that ensure all people have access to the products they need to fully participate in life. We envision a future where menstruation is no longer a barrier to participate in work, education, or life, and periods are free of stigma and shame. Because of supporters like you, since 2022 we have distributed 3 million free period products to Nebraskans. We do this through 10 statewide Access Points where anyone can access free supplies, over 60 other nonprofits who already serve the people we want to reach, and schools. We provide more than enough in our 3-month supply kits so we can provide both products and peace of mind.
Besides monetary donations, the Social Concerns Committee is asking that you consider adding period products to donations you give to our Little Food Pantry and the Lutheran Food Pantry. Just place them in the respective boxes in the narthex.
