Toiletries Collection for the Bowie Food Pantry
The middle and primary school Sunday School classes are leading a drive for personal care items to be donated to the Bowie Food Pantry for distribution to their clients. Here are the details from the kids: The people who use the Bowie Food Pantry have asked us to donate toiletries to them. If you could be so kind as to bring things like the following, we would be very grateful: we need toothpaste, toothbrushes, tampons, pads, soap, deodorant, lotion, shampoo, and conditioner. Hand sanitizer and tissues are okay too. Please bring full size (not mini or jumbo). Monetary donations are also welcome to help buy supplies. We (the kids) will collect these things the weeks of October 13 - November 3. Then we will sort them and deliver them to the Food Pantry. Please put these things in labeled the bin in the Narthex. Thank you!
