SANDWICH SATURDAY
- Our next date to provide sack lunches is Saturday, July 25. We will need help on Friday, July 24 at about 5:00pm to make the PB&J sandwiches and put together the rest of the lunches. We will practice social distancing and do everything as safely as possible.
- We will also need help delivering the lunches on Saturday morning, July 25. We will simply drop them off at St. John’s Episcopal, but we do need one or two people willing to help transport the food. We will not be distributing them directly to the people because their staff will do that.

Teacher Assistance If you are teaching school this fall please be aware that Human Needs Committee will be splitting $500 among all the teachers to assist in setting up their classrooms. Typically teachers utilize their personal funds in addition to those provided by the school. This year the schools will have less resources available to the teachers so we would like to supplement them.
