The Southminster Scamper co-hosted by Southminster Presbyterian Church and Southminster Day School is dedicated to supporting Greater Birmingham Ministries and Southminster Day School.
Greater Birmingham Ministries strives to serve people, build community, and pursue justice. GBM provides food, clothing, and financial assistance to people in crisis. They offer faith communities in Birmingham and Alabama the opportunity to serve, to learn about poverty and justice, and to act on their faith and to be supported in advocating for justice. GBM works alongside low-income neighborhoods and people to nurture community leaders, provide ongoing leadership development around issues and bring new leaders into public decision-making processes that affect their community. A portion on the proceeds will go to benefit the ministry of GBM. For more information visit: www.gbm.org
Southminster Day School, a private school, was established in 1967. The SDS mission is to give children of the community the finest background in their early formative years in a Christian atmosphere. This year the funds raised from the Scamper will go towards purchasing Smart TV's for each classroom. For more information visit: www.southminsterdayschool.org
