Monthly Applebee’s Fundraiser

The Community Ministries Program has set up a way to enjoy a meal out with your family or friends while helping us out at the same time at the Wyoming Applebee’s (1375 28th St. SW). The first Monday of each month anytime from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m., Applebee’s will donate 20% of the profit from the food and nonalcoholic beverages purchased, to those presenting coupons for our fundraiser at Trinity. Join us for the next one on Monday, February 6. Click here for a flyer. They are also available in the Parlor and you can always get one from any Community Ministries staff person or the office.

Our Story

Trinity began its Community Ministries (CM) outreach program in 1993 when a need was identified to provide a safe place for the growing number of at-risk kids in the neighborhood.

At the beginning we opened our doors to just a handful of elementary-aged students. Since, we have grown to annually serve over 100 children, teens and young adults—many of whom have stayed with the program since childhood.

CM is staffed by a team of educators, administrators, counselors, and other highly skilled professionals, supported by more than 100 volunteers.

Our  program includes:

  • Kid’s Club – meets weekly
  • Teen Club (dinner and/or bible study) – meets two night/week
  • Literacy Program for grades 1-3 – meets 4 days
  • Tutoring in school and in house
  • Advocacy work school and other at all levels
  • Gym program – M-Th
  • Summer programming
  • Prayer partners for each child and teen (on-going)
  • Scholarships for camp and other enrichment programs

You can help by participating in our year-round Magazine Fundraiser.
