Ware Elementary Book Fair Sign Up Now!
|
I wanted to take this time to update the members of EPC on what has happened and what is happening at our adopted school, Ware. Thanks to your generous donations, not only have we sponsored 100 children for the 2014-2015 school year with our backpack program, we were also able to fulfill 35 children's Christmas wish lists. Between those that sponsored an Angel and those who donated money to fill in the gaps, ALL of the children we sponsored had an unbelievable Christmas. We even had some funds left over for next year's Angels!! Mrs. Willis, the school counselor, shared with me all the tears, surprise, joy and appreciation the parents expressed when receiving these gifts. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Now, we have another opportunity to shower these children with EPC love. The Ware book fair is Feb. 24-28. I am looking for volunteers to work in groups of three for 90 minute shifts. If you are interested in working a shift (or 2 or 3), just contact me at (903) 720-5325 or [email protected].
Again, I can not express from Ware or myself how much we appreciate those who have sponsored a child, filled a back pack, unloaded food from WalMart for the backpack program, adopted an Angel, donated money for Christmas gifts, worked a shift at book fair, helped at any breakfast, luncheon or teacher appreciation
OR PRAYED for any and all of the above. Bless you.
Love to you all, Terrye Hudson
