Ecumenical Youth Service Project: Safe Haven Animal Shelter
The middle & high school youth of St. George’s, First Parish, and YOUMC would love your support as we work together to practice good stewardship in our community. The children will be gathering food and supplies for a local organization—Safe Haven in Wells—who relies on volunteer help to care for the many homeless cats in our area.
Youth groups will be meeting on Friday, November 1 at 5:30 p.m. at First Parish Church to decorate drop boxes for our supply drive, and to make toys for the kitties. These drop boxes will be placed at our respective churches, as well as at York Public Library and Ann-imals Pet Supply in York. (Ann-imals has generously offered a 10% discount for any food/supplies bought at their store & placed in the drop box onsite there.) You can donate at our boxes all through the month of November. We humbly ask you to join with us as we seek to continue our practice of caring for creation. Thank you for partnering with us!
