The July Giving Tree supports Healthy Families, a local organization working with at-risk families in our community. They need backpacks and school supplies for the kindergarten-bound 5-year olds in families graduating from the program. Pick a tag from the tree in the Parish Hall to help a child get off to a happy first day of school.  Can't make it to the Parish Hall?  Here's a list of needed items -- new please!  Please return them to the Parish Hall by Sunday, July 25th.  Healthy Families will assemble and distribute them in time for the first day of school next month. 

 

• jumbo crayons
• large pencils
• washable markers
• white glue
• glue sticks 
• blunt scissors  
• pencil box (or zippered pouch)
