Information About Our October Project

Saturday, October 16 is our next project!

At this project in addition to our usual fun activities, we'll be collecting food for the Kid's Backpack Program at the Utah Food Bank. This program is designed to help children whose regular meals are breakfast and lunch at school. The Utah Food Bank gives these children backpacks of food so they will have something to eat until their next meal. We will also be scheduling a tour of the Utah Food Bank facility...on a Saturday morning. More information will be coming, but all SWS children and parents are invited to attend.

Here is a list of the most needed items:
Shelf-stable milk (8oz)
Peanut butter (12 oz)
Fruit cups (small cans with pop tops)
Veggie cups (small cans with pop tops)
Granola Bars (healthy varieties)

Photos and Stats from our September Project

Our project was a lot of fun!
We made 20 Value Bracelets, 51 First Aid Kits,
18 Coloring Pages,
7 Geckos,
1 Hat, (these take a long time!)
3 Fleece Blankets were tied, and 1 Receiving Blanket was sewn.
We also worked on these stuffed socks too. We had worked on these at another project before. They will be going to Indian Reservations in Arizona.
Kathi Andersen came to talk to us about Haiti. She has gone there several times to help out since they had their earthquake. It's tough in Haiti! She said they give our bracelets and geckos to kids when they come into their clinics.
Hope to see you there next time!
