BACK TO SCHOOL DRIVE for UCM
The
UCM needs the help of the community to alleviate the financial strain associated with the back to school time of year. With your support, UCM helps to get the children in our community off to a good start by filling backpacks with grade appropriate items on the list below. You can purchase items from the following list to help children get off to a good start in the Fall.
We will be collecting school supplies during the week of VBS (Aug 9-13) and also on the following Sundays, Aug 1, 8 & 15 in Wesley Hall.
Please take a green Serving Christ by Serving Others bag from the church and return it filled with school supplies on one of these dates.
Last year, UCM provided school supplies to 800+ students.
Thank you in advance for helping to prepare our children for a life of learning experiences this school year.
