NEED OF THE MONTH
Each month Gethsemane's Social Ministry team raises funds and collects much-needed goods for various partner organizations from Hopkins and around the world.
MAY: Books for Alice Smith Students
In May we are collecting books for the students at Alice Smith Elementary, our next door neighbors. Books will be distributed to pre-K-5th graders (ages 4–11) either at the end of this school year or right away in the fall. The books are intended for kids to take home to keep and enjoy.
All kinds of non-religious books are welcome—fiction, non-fiction, hard-cover or paperback, new or very gently used. Let’s fill our collection barrels with lots of books and promote a love of reading all year long!
You can also make a financial gift. Write your check to Gethsemane with ‘Books for Alice Smith’ on the
memo line or click here to give online. Alice Smith staff will use the funds to purchase books for students.
