​School Kits!

Notebooks and pencils are treasures for families who struggle to afford basic school supplies. School kits often are requested after disasters and help bring normalcy to children whose families have been forced to flee their homes.
 
91,218 school kits were shipped last year to Canada, Haiti, Jordan, South Sudan, Syria, Ukraine and Zambia! More information is available through pamphlets on the table in the entrance way.
 
School Kits cost about $10 to make. You can donate to MCC through Grace. Just indicate was the donation is for – on a envelope or cheque or by e-tranfer. The kits contain:
