We are working on two things to help with the cost of everyday supplies:
* The Wheels on the Bus
When you see a small bus around the church, take a minute to look at the tags on the bus. Those are items we need at preschool to keep running
smoothly. If you'd like to help, just take a tag, buy the item and return it to the bus. Preschool parents have been a great help with this
project! Thanks in advance for your help with "keeping the wheels moving".
* Pennies for Preschool
The teachers would love to have a Cricket. It's a small machine that cuts letters and cuts shapes for walls, bulletin boards, games, etc. We're
collecting Pennies for Preschool in our big green penny pail. If you'd like to help, look for the penny pail and add your pennies.
