“Our Mission is a Passion for the Betterment of our Community,
People Helping People.”
Rock Da Block is a community outreach service through Christian Life Center, we are a non profit organization that reaches out to Merced’s rural areas. We provide free events throughout the community, to assist with helping people with their needs. We have sponsored 16 events since 2005 throughout Merced
During a “Rock Da Block” event the surrounding community is provided with food, entertainment, bounce houses, face painting and resource tables that offer assistance, such as WIC, Girl Scouts of America, Work net, PG&E, Central California Child Development Centers, Merced College, Castle Family Health Centers, District Attorneys Office - Victims/Witness Program, Merced Parks & Recreation, and All Dads Matter. These are just a few organizations that have partnered with us in the past. These events create a great opportunity to encourage local families to spend quality time together as a family and become acquainted with local law enforcement and other local agencies created for the betterment of life in the community.
Past events have included: providing much needed jackets, diapers and Easter baskets in the Loughborough area, jackets and blankets in the Beachwood area during the flooding, and backpacks and school supplies in the Las Brisas area of South Merced just to name a few.
Our next event will be held on June 30th 2010 at Christian Life Center 650 E. Olive Ave. We will be partnering with ComVIP working collaboratively to reduce violence in the community. At this time we are inviting all non-profit and faith-based organizations to come join us and share what they have to offer for the community through carnival type games. There is no cost for your booth and we welcome all to participate. Start up time will be 4:30 pm. Our focus will be Neighborhood and Fire Safety. We will be ending the event with a BIG Fireworks Show to Celebrate the 4th of July, and everything is FREE to the Community. We are requesting snack food items, drinks and raffle gifts to share with the community.
Thank You in advance for your assistance.
