Coat Drive for Youth Villages During Homecoming

9/25/2014

Picture
As temperatures start to cool off, it's time to help get our community ready for winter weather.  While many of us are well-stocked with winter clothes, there are thousands of people in Memphis who are not equipped with warm coats and clothes.  The coats are for the children at Youth Villages but we need ALL sizes!  Newborn–XXXL coats.  Gently-used items are acceptable.  If the item is so worn or torn that you wouldn't wear it, don't assume that someone else would!

We will collect coats, mittens, gloves, scarves, and hats starting today and going up until the Friday of Homecoming.  Since the drive lines up with Homecoming, we have decided to make this into a friendly competition.  Whichever class gathers the most items will win.  If the sophomores, juniors, or seniors win, they will receive additional JUG points.

Donation Boxes will be housed in Bible classrooms.  Teachers that bring in items can donate towards whichever grade they wish.  If you don't want to pick favorites, you can give your items to Jenna and she will "anonymously" donate to a random grade.

7th Grade Box- Mr. Murphy
8th Grade Box- Dr. Stafford
9th Grade Box- Mr. Woods
10th Grade Box- Dr. Fowler
11th Grade Box- Mr./Mrs. King
12th Grade Box- Mr. Knight

Let the servant-hearted games begin!
