Annual School Supply Drive with a Twist - Last Weekend To Drop Off Gift Cards

Annual School Supply Drive with a Twist - Last Weekend To Drop Off Gift Cards

It’s that time of year!

As with many of our events, we are doing things differently. This year we are asking for gift cards to stores such as Walmart, Staples, Target, etc. to be donated in lieu of actual school supplies. 

The gift cards will be donated to our “adopted” Department of Children & Families social worker, Cathy Vera. Cathy will use the gift cards to fill the school supply needs of the children assigned to her office.

Gift cards can be left in the collection baskets at either church or brought to either church office through the weekend of August 21/22.

Your participation is especially appreciated this year, as so many more families are struggling in so many ways. Please help our children, if you can.

Please note, if you already bought school supplies to donate, the items may be brought to the drop boxes at The Cornerstone Foundation (3 Prospect St., Rockville).

Thank you for your generosity!
