Service Learning News

Our third graders are working with Cross Catholic Outreach for their Service Learning project this year. They will be collecting "Boxes of Joy" for children in Guatemala during October 16-November 6. On Nov. 6th, they will have a packing party where they will sort and package the boxes to be delivered. If you would like to help our third graders by filling a box or donating to their efforts, please contact Mrs. Kelly Lalicon at the8lalicons@ymail.com. Please visit their website for details and watch the video below to see how wonderful this project is.
____________________________________________________________
One of the organizations we will support this year as part of our Service Learning program is the Catholic Orphanage in Tanzania built by Father Mark Mlay. Father Mark was a priest here at St. Anastasia Church for 6 years. He is asking for our help in the form of books, children's clothes and toys. From now until Oct. 31, we will collect text books, reading books, children's toys and clothes for shipment to Africa. He specifically needs clothes for boys and girls ages 3-7 (shorts, shirts, skirts). They are in the process of building an elementary school and high school, so the books will be of great use, too. If you would like to donate any of these items, please bring them to the school. Collection will take place in the back of the auditorium. Thank you!
