We will be collecting gently used and new clothing for school children (sizes 4T-16) during the months of July and August. Especially needed are new socks and underwear. The goal of Christian Services is to provide a week's worth of new socks and underwear for each child. Last year they helped clothe over 800 children during the months of July and August.Please place your donation in the bin by the social hall. Thank you for helping children in our area.
