It is almost time for back to school shopping! Each year the kids get their shopping list of needed school supplies that always includes tissues. 2|42 has been asked to collect 2000 small pocket tissue packs, for the LESA backpack giveaway. The Brighton Campus will be collecting new tissue boxes, during the 2 church services on Sunday, August 8th.
The Livingston Educational Service Agency (LESA) will be holding its 9th annual “Backpacks for Kids” project on August 19, 2010. The goal of this project is to provide Livingston County students whose families are experiencing financial difficulties with basic school supplies at no cost.
Last year 1600 Livingston County students received backpacks filled with basic school supplies. This year LESA is hoping to giveaway 2,000 free backpacks. The distribution will be at the location listed below.
