Stuffed toy collection drive – January 1-31
The Knights of Columbus at St. Mary is collecting small stuffed animals or dolls to provide to First Responders. Oftentimes responders encounter a child on the scene who is injured or scared. The responder can offer a toy to help comfort the child and ease their anxiety. Parishioners can participate by donating a small stuffed animal/doll or give a monetary contribution (suggested $7.00). A container and donation envelopes will be in the Gathering Space through the end of January for you to drop off your gift/donation. The Knights are planning a banquet to present the toys to area emergency agencies. Contributors are welcome to witness the presentation. Contact Knight Larry Facelli at 803-517-4144 for any questions.
