BRIGHT BEGINNINGS

girlshoppingBright Beginnings ensures that children in need are able to start the school year off right with new school supplies, shoes, clothes, and confidence. Our goal this year is to take 5 children shopping for back to school clothes and supplies.

 

You can help!

  • Our goal is $750, we need $211 to meet our goal. You can sponsor a child for $150 but a donation of any amount will help!
  • You can also donate school supplies.
  • To volunteer or donate contact Sheila Pillath @725-1488

We will be shopping August 14th.
