A huge thank you<\/strong> to everyone who moved furniture, carried boxes, sorted supplies, packed individual bags for each student, set up displays, helped students and their parents find the appropriate bags, donated supplies and monetary gifts, and cleaned up afterwards! Without a remarkable outpouring of generous gifts of time and treasure from our community, none of this would happen!<\/p>\n

Thank you for your kindness to the children!<\/h3>\n

Once again this year, our congregation will host the ECHO School Supply Drive and Distribution in our building from August 20-24, 2018. <\/strong><\/p>\n

Donations of school supplies and cash to purchase supplies are needed to assist the hundreds of children who have signed up to receive assistance. Volunteers are needed to help unpack, sort, and organize the supplies and then to pack the kit of supplies for each registered child.<\/p>\n
