Food Pantry

In August of 2007 volunteers cleaned out an old store room and built a food pantry. At that time it was stocked, with the intention of maintaining basic food supplies and other items as needed or donated. For example, new children’s socks, underclothes, toothbrushes and vitamins could be included. We are wishing for individuals, clubs or organizations that can assist us in maintaining these needed supplies.

School Library

The current library is this bookshelf of used books. We would like to create a cheerful space that not only contains books to read but also chairs and tables. We are wishing for books (picture books and elementary readers in Spanish), bookshelves, and furniture. This library can be built with monetary donations, and/or a group can participate in a service trip to build the shelves, paint the room and purchase and stock the books themselves.

Gifts from the Christ Child

We collect presents to distribute at the school Christmas party in December. These are delivered by volunteers during the summer months, so collections are underway now!
