CLOTHING DRIVE
in June
Together we can help to bring joy and confidence to a child in need by providing new clothes and shoes to start the school year off right.
It may be hard to believe there is poverty in the Hill Country. Many students in each county have qualified for free or reduced lunches, indicating that their parents earn at or below the poverty line. Poverty has a long-term effect on children’s lives. Your support helps ensure that every child in your community feels the love of Jesus Christ and their neighbor.
Your donation will join hundreds of others in our Hill Country community to help children begin the school year confident and dressed in the warmth of your generosity.
On June 2, 9 and 16 there will be a table set up in the Gathering Place for donors to choose the age and gender of a child to sponsor, as well as pick one outfit, or shoes they want to purchase. In the past, each donor was asked to purchase multiple items, but this year is different! Here is how it works:
- A bag will be provided for your contribution and will include your Child’s Name, Age, Sex & Sizes.
- Fill your bag with ONE of the following outfits
(these should be NEW items):
– pants & shirt
– pants & sweater/sweatshirt
– shorts & shirt or
– shoes & pack of socks - Once your shopping is complete, please return your bag no later than Wednesday, June 26 to St. John Lutheran Church, Boerne. Also, Please remember to cover your child in prayer.
Bags will need to be returned to St. John by June 26. Stop by the table in June to learn more and to help!
Thank you for your support!
