HELP CWS FILL A TRUCK WITH SCHOOL KITS
Humanitarian agency, Church World Service (CWS), has issued an urgent appeal for children's school supplies. The demands of disasters, both overseas and here in the U.S. in the past two years, have taken a toll on inventories of CWS kits. Especially low are supplies of children's school kits.

A truck has been secured to transport school kits to the warehouse in New Windsor, Maryland before the end of October. Please help us fill the truck!
Individuals, businesses, churches, and groups are urged to assemble School Kits and drop them off by October 15, 2007.

DROP-OFF LOCATION in OSWEGO COUNTY:
Parish-Hastings Presbyterian Church
814 Rider Street
Parish, NY     13131
 
CWS SCHOOL KIT
Three 70-page spiral-bound notebooks of ruled paper
Six new pencils with erasers
One large eraser
One pencil sharpener
One 12-inch ruler
One box of 24 crayons
One pair blunt scissors

Please enclose only items listed.

Place all items in a canvas or fabric tote bag approximately
14" X 16".   
The Parish-Hastings Youth Group will be sewing these bags, if you would like to purchase one for $1.  Place an order with Mary Lou Guindon at 625-4575 OR canvas bags are available at many area craft stores. A pattern to sew school bags is available by calling the CWS Regional Office in Syracuse at 315-458-8535 (toll-free 1-888-297-2767) or online at www.churchworldservice.org. Please, no backpacks.

A donation of $2 per kit towards the shipping costs will help deliver kits to children in poverty-stricken areas around the world. Please do not enclose the shipping fees in the kits. Checks or cash can be dropped off with your kits.
