 Back to School Drive
The BACK-TO-SCHOOL DRIVE - is our annual appeal coordinated through the St Gabriel Outreach Committee for children in the foster care system served by the Kids Crossing Child Placement Agency.  This years’ collection benefits 92 children and teens in multiple school districts. Some students are on modified or year round school schedules.  A display table with copies of the list of items requested will be set up in the Narthex from July 1st through July 23rd for your donations. Having the required school supplies can make a huge difference in a young person’s self esteem and can help keep him or her on the right track towards school success. Contact Bernadette Marquez at bernadette.marquez4770 at comcast.net, 757-358-4232 or Melissa Wesenberg at meliwese at yahoo.com, 719-646-4094 with any questions. These youngsters need our support, encouragement and most importantly our prayers. In advance, we thank you for supporting at risk youth in our community and for your unfailing generosity!
