The St. John's Shelter has invited the Notre Dame of De Pere School to be a part of their first Open House for the entire Community on October 25th from 4:30-8 pm. They have invited us to prepare and serve the meal with our children (the kiddos are allowed to help serve the meal due to this being prior to the shelter opening for the season) This is a great opportunity to show our kiddos around the shelter and teach them where the amazing food that everyone has been contributing is going to throughout the year. They have asked that each child signing up to volunteer is in 1st grade or older and has an adult on site to assist if needed. The second grade has started signing up to make the meal and we will keep the school posted as additional help may be needed. However, we wanted to open up the voluntering opportunity to the entire school. Anyone (all ages!) is also welcome to stop by the shelter at any time convenient for a tour and bowl of chili without signing up to volunteer.
Some information on the open house is below:
