The First Grade
Team at Banks Road has decided on our winter service project for this year. We
would like to try and bless people in our community that may not otherwise be
blessed this holiday season. The children voted and have decided to collect
items to help those less fortunate keep warm this winter. Please look through
your closets for items like coats, sweatshirts, hats, mittens, and blankets
that you and your family have either outgrown or, like many of us, just have a few too many of. You can even recruit neighbors and other
family members to clean out their closets and donate as well.
Please send in
clean, gently-used items by Friday, December 5th. We will donate
these items to various homeless shelters and outreach centers throughout our
community.
This is a great
opportunity to teach your children about the joys of giving and helping those
in need. Thank you so much for your generosity.
