Grace partners with Sand Creek Elementary School to provide for those students who are in need during the school year. From school supplies to turkeys to adopt a family, there are many opportunities throughout the year. There is also an ongoing snack donation to provide snacks for those students who do not have a snack for the day.
The list of items that Grace collects on an ongoing basis are:
Snacks suggested that are good for Sand Creek to receive:
Nature Valley Crunchy Granola Bars (the favorite for the children)
NutriGrain Soft Baked Breakfast Bars with real fruit
Gold Fish (individually packaged)
Skinny Pop (individually packaged)
Fruit Snacks (preferably with real fruit nutrition)
Emergency clothing for Sand Creek elementary student accidents:
Immediate needs: Boys bottoms – size 5, 6, 7, 8 (small & medium); Girls bottoms – size 5, 6, 7 (small). Bottoms can be leggings or pants with elastic waste (no jeans) that are new or gently used.
However, they will always take donations for boys and girls bottoms sizes small, medium or large at any time.
They will also take socks for kids sizes from K-5 for the upcoming winter/wet months.
Grace sponsors a week each month with Family Promise where families in need receive donations of household, personal, and other items.
