School Supplies Drive and Youth Competition!
July 2nd-August 10th
The Youth Group will be hosting a school supplies drive starting in July for the Running Start for School Initiative sponsored by United Way of Olmsted County. Supplies donated will help k-12 students in Olmsted County.
High school and middle school students will compete to see who can bring in the most donations. The winning team will celebrate with a party at the end of the drive!
All parishioners are encouraged to donate. Choose a “team” (High School or Middle School) to award points to—or help both teams! Drop off items to the bins in the gathering space.
