Sacred Heart School's Thanksgiving Service Project

Dear Parents,

          We would like to begin by thanking you for working so hard to make last year’s service project such a resounding success!  We are a school blessed with overflowing hearts.

          Our Daily Bread has sent us a list of goods which they need to keep on hand throughout the year.  We have designated certain goods for each grade to donate.  Please see the list at the end of this letter for donations. 

As in years past, we will be collecting “Silver for Silver.”   This is spare change the children donate for Our Daily Bread to purchase silverware.

All donations need to be in by Wednesday, November 10 so that we can see what we have and assess any needs.  If the donations are not sufficient to complete the service project, we will have time to purchase what we are lacking.

Thanks so much for your generosity!

Maggie Kartanowicz and Rebecca Potis
