Big Creek Missions
During Frontier's September 2019 faculty Meeting, Frontier faculty raised $1,820 to donate to Big Creek Missions in Hyden, KY. This amount was matched by our Chi Pi chapter. We were so excited to present Mary Lewis at Big Creek Missions with a check for $3,640! She told us that with this money, the organization will be able to buy enough food to fill seven box trucks.
