It is once again time for our annual school supply recycling project. With the help of many of you last year in collecting, sorting and packing supplies, more than three hundred boxes were distributed to the following organizations all of whom were most grateful for what they received:
Caring Place 4 Kidz
Catholic Charities in Chicago
Catholic Charities in Cicero
Global Youth Leadership
Harvest Hope
Kolbe House Prison Ministry’s Children of the Incarcerated Program
Marillac Social Center
Off the Street Club
St. Thadeus Parish
St. Vincent DePaul Center
SCARCE
Please let us know of any additional schools or organizations that might be in need of supplies this year.
Helpers of all ages are needed to sort and pack on Monday and Tuesday, 6/11 and 6/12, from 9:00 until noon at Mary Lee and Jim Larsen’s home, 4521 Harvey in Western Springs. Please come for as little or as long as you would like. There will be a pizza lunch and a chance to swim afterwards for those who can stay.
If you have any questions please call Mary Lee or Jim Larsen at 708-246-3987.
