Operation Kid-to-Kid at IMH Needs School Supplies

Wikimedia Commons

Kids in the Vacation Bible School at Immaculate Heart of Mary worked on a project to help children in need. For Operation Kid-to-Kid, the children decorated backpacks with bright colors and affirmations. But now they need your help to stuff the bags with school supplies, so the kids who receive the bags have everything they need once school starts in September.

You can drop a donation of new school supplies at the rectory between 9am and 5pm starting Monday, August 15. These will be given to students of all ages, so keep that in mind while gathering school supplies such as:

Pencils (#2)
Pencil Sharpeners
Pens (Black and Blue Ink)
Erasers
Washable Markers
Crayons
Elmer's Glue
Glue Sticks
Safety Scissors
Rulers
Pocket Folders
Binders
Composition Books
