Woolwich Community Services is organizing a Back Pack program to provide for less fortunate children and youth, in Woolwich and Wellesley Township. As you are well aware, Woolwich Community Services provides a variety of services to its community members.
Most families receiving their services are unable to afford the extra expenses necessary for their children to return to school in September. This year we hope that every child and youth will go back to school eager to learn along with a full backpack and a smile on their face.
There is a need to fill 175 backpacks with “supplies required” for school this fall. Our philosophy is “Together Making Difference”. With your support, we will make a difference.
Our help is desperately needed to fill these back packs. If you are able to help out please leave your donation in the basket in the office or the basket in the foyer by Sunday, August 28th.
For more information, see Wendy in the office.
