HOW YOU CAN HELP S.T.A.R.T.S.


Want to do something to help kids in our neighborhood, but you don’t have the time to volunteer in the afternoon?

Here is a great way for you to pitch in: Every day we feed the STARTS kids both a snack AND a meal.  The children come from homes which often are broken, struggling with lack of income, abusive, etc.
The program is free but we still need to acquire the food to feed them each and every day we open the doors.
Please look at the list at the end of this article and tell your friends about it, too: which items can you help us with?
There are 20 children in the program, so you can “do the math” as to how much is needed.  At some of our supporting churches we have placed donation boxes – decorated by the children – with the list of needed food items.  Let us know if a box may be placed at your workplace, as well – or in your home?
We really do want “to change the world, one child at a time”; we are inviting you to come alongside us in that endeavor by supporting the STARTS program.
If you would prefer to donate a monetary gift, remember that we are a not-for-profit 501 ©(3), and that your gift to YesWeServe is tax-deductible.
LIST OF NEEDED ITEMS:
Cheese sauce, chips, crackers (Graham, Animal, Cheese),
Forks and spoons, fruit snacks,
Granola bars,
Jelly,
Napkins,
Oatmeal,
Pancake mix, pasta, peanut butter, popcorn,
Rice,
Spam, spaghetti sauce,
Toilet paper, trail mix,
Wipes.

Thank you and God bless you for your generosity!
