THINK ABOUT IT!
What do local children who receive free meals at school during the week eat on the weekend?
For our 9/11 Service Project, St. Joseph Parishioners have been asked to assist RENT Party volunteers who have begun a BackPack Pals program! Starting Sunday, September 11th through the 25th we will be collecting the following “Open & Eat” or “Heat & Eat” items:
Mac & Cheese
Chef Boyardee Raviolis, Lasagna, Pasta and Meatballs
Individual Size Cereal Boxes
Mixed Fruit, Peach and Apple Sauce Cups
Apple and Grape Juice Boxes
Cans of Chili, Beef Stew and Red Beans & Rice
Our 8th Grade Religious Education students will sort the donations, fill the weekend bags and then they will be distributed to the most in need students through our local Parenting Center and school guidance counselors.
