January Outreach Project

Our outreach project for January will be donations to purchase bulk supplies for our Blessing Bags which members and friends distribute to persons who are experiencing homelessness. Although we have dubbed these bags “Gimmee 5” bags because they started out at around $5/bag, inflation has upped the cost. At about $7 to $8/bag, our goal is to pack about 150 of these for the coming months, which brings the total we need to about $1,200. Surplus donations will be used to add $5 McDonald gift cards to the bags – a gift that gives persons access to food, a place to sit, and restrooms. A packing party will be announced for late January or early February.
