SIGNUPS CLOSED
Middle school and high school students needed to help run events for Small Things Matter at the MLK celebration. The items made will benefit the 2000 food insecure individuals we serve. MS/HS students will earn SSL hours by helping younger students and their families at our various tables to put together. We are also looking for a few adults to support the students and families.
LOCATION:
There will be 3 tables making the following
1) Cups of Cheer for Seniors. Ceramic cups filled with treats and a kind note to make the day of a senior a little brighter.
2) Cleaning kits for food insecure families. Cleaning items such as comet, dishwashing detergent, sponges, and other cleaning items will be assembled together with a kind note to help the food insecure families we serve.
3) Friendship bracelets for children. The pandemic disconnected many of us and this small gesture of a friendship bracelet is meant to help bridge those gaps and let children know that we care about them and want the best for them.
