Friendship Children's Center

is located at 310 Fernwood Ave, Rochester, NY. It is a

non-denominational, not-for-profit organization, providing a wide range of family and child support services to an economically and culturally diverse population in the Greater Rochester area.

JCPC partners with Friendship Children’s Center to provide socks and sneakers for the children each Spring as well as providing food donations in November and December along with Christmas gifts for the children. The Center has continued to be open during the pandemic as many of the parents are considered essential works.

Rochester Refugee Center

Formerly known as Mary's Place, is located at 414 Lexington Avenue, Rochester. It is a refugee outreach center that has been serving refugee families living in the City of Rochester since 2009. Mary’s Place Refugee Outreach, Inc. was incorporated as a not-for-profit corporation in March of 2019.

JCPC partners with Mary’s Place to sort, organize and display clothing in the clothing closet on a regular basis. Hygiene products (soap, shampoo, deodorant, toothpaste) are collected on a regular basis and donated to Mary’s Place. The church also participates in the annual backpack and school supply distribution and the annual collection of gifts for children at Christmas.
