Last year St. Thomas’ supported students living in poverty with backpacks as they began their new journey at Loch Raven High. You were all so generous with your donations that the Student Support Network (formerly the Loch Raven Network) were able to support 25 new students. The students and the school were most appreciative! Can we do it again this year? I think we can!
These backpacks will afford an opportunity for these students to be prepared for a productive time as
they enter high school this year.
In order that we don’t collect all pens and no paper, we’re asking that you contribute according to the list
below. Any one item you purchase will make a difference! If you would prefer to contribute cash, we’ll
be glad to shop for the supplies. There will be boxes in the Narthex to collect the items and monetary
donations. We already have 25 water bottles donated!
Donations will be collected from June 3rd through July 15th. We’ll gather in the Fellowship Hall on July 22nd after our worship service to pack the backpacks. Many hands made light work of the packing last year! Please mark your calendars now to join us on July 22nd.
Please contact Jan Bahner (443-564-9464) if you have any questions.
Thank you for you generous support to provide welcoming gifts and a message of hope and support to
these students!
