SCHOOL BAGS:  Help is needed with supplying school bags with rope that completes the handsewn bags.  Each bag uses 4 yards of rope, so 100’ of rope is needed for 8 bags.  Our goal is 100 school bags.  The rope is required to have ¼” thickness.  Color does not matter.  

Here are the specs:  KingCord ¼” x 100’ Camouflage Diamond Braid Polypropylene Rope in assorted colors. Model Number 341221MNPDQ, Menard’s SKU#235115.  Menard’s low price is $7.99, which is the best price found and is double what was paid in past years.  Menard’s did not have the big spool.

PERSONAL CARE KITS:  During Lent, we are asking you to bring in items needed to make these kits.  With the many disasters which have been happening in our world, people need the basics for good hygiene.  Each kit needs the following:

Week One – Feb 18-22: Light-weight, dark color, bath size towel, between 20” x 40” and 52” x 27”.

Week Two – Feb 25-Mar 1: 2 or 3 bath-size bars of soap, equaling 8-9 oz, in original wrapping.
