The DROP.... This Saturday!

We're only two days away from the Supply Drop and advance preparation teams are laboring to make everything ready for the big day. 

Saturday morning you can bring your family and friends to the Elkhart campus or the Granger campus. Plan to arrive around 8:30 AM because the rally begins promptly at 9:00. Most of our "work" will be done inside this year. We'll help each other: packing supplies, loading them and delivering them across Michiana.

I'm expecting around 2,000 volunteers to participate. 

I'm asking you to help.

We're delivering critical care packages to 38 Title 1 Schools and 20 Medicare/Medicaid Nursing Home facilities in Elkhart, Mishawaka, Niles and South Bend.

See the list below.

Psalm 72:12-13  -  God rescues the poor at the first sign of need, the destitute who have run out of luck. He opens a place in his heart for the down-and-out, he restores the wretched of the earth.

THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart for the necessary and appreciated items in the tote. Someone must have asked what an educator could use--we buy these items throughout the school year for our classrooms (out of our paychecks) and this time YOU provided for us. I wish you could have seen teachers' expressions finding the tote on his/her desk -- after checking out the useful items--reading the note of encouragement. Educators need all the encouragement we can get "these days". With a grateful heart, Sheryl Spurrier, Kindergarten teacher @ McKinley Primary Center--South Bend.:)
