As  proud citizens of the United States it is our civic duty to give back to our community.  We are very selective in the charities that we support.  CCAP helps to provide for the poorest of the poor.  They have many wonderful programs including adopt-a-family programs during the holidays and have been a wonderful way for us to touch the lives of those less fortunate in our community.  We pray that you too will help us support CCAP or seek a charity that touches the lives of others.  God Bless!
