Choices Women’s Clinic exists to encourage and equip women and men to make informed pregnancy decisions. Choices does not benefit financially from any decision a patient makes and does not charge for services. Choices believe that women and men are capable of making their own choices when given accurate information.
Many patients did not plan on getting pregnant and they are facing difficult choices. Choices’ goal is for each patient to make her own decision after she has received all the resources and information applicable to her situation. If pregnant, some choose to parent, some choose to place for adoption, and some choose to end their pregnancy and have an abortion.
With over 30 years of experience providing free and confidential services to patients in Greater Orlando, Choices is here when you find yourself unsure of whether you are pregnant, and when you don’t know all of your options—a free and confidential space to have your questions answered.
Help provide a welcoming, dignified shopping experience for students at two of University Carillon’s partner schools: Eastlake Elementary and Riverdale Elementary.

No physical requirements are needed! There is always someone available to help with the occasional heavy bag or box of donations.
Community Pantry is a ministry of University Carillon that helps support local food pantries. Once a month, “Community Pantry” bags are handed out at service with the request to fill them with nonperishables and return them the next weekend at service. The nonperishable food items donated to Community Pantry will be shared with local food pantries in need.
Next time you see one of the navy Community Pantry reusable bags, please participate in a way that gives back to those in need in our community. Thank you!
HOW IT WORKS:
Community Pantry bags will be available for pick up once a month. When you pick up the bag:
1. Take the Community Pantry bag with you and fill it with nonperishable food items. (Or bring in any donatable bag)
2. Pray for those who may be receiving the food in the bag.
3. Drop the bag off at service next weekend. (you can also leave them behind your car before walking into service)
Requested items: mac and cheese, canned raviolis/SpaghettiOs, tuna or canned chicken, canned soup, canned beans, rice, ramen noodles, canned vegetables, peanut butter, cereal, pasta, jelly, oatmeal, pancake mix, syrup, pasta sauce (canned or plastic jars).
In addition to the “in-house” opportunities listed here, we sponsor “Community Launch” days where we tackle a number of activities that benefit our neighbors–yard clean-up, distribution of event information, minor home repairs, food collections and more. Watch for announcements about the next Community Launch day.
