School Supply Volunteers! Every year, Catholic Charities supports low-income families in the Lake County area by collecting and distributing donated school supplies. For children experiencing poverty, school supplies are a luxury that many may go without. You can help by volunteering the week of August 9th. Volunteers are needed as follows:
Monday, 8/9 – sort, stuff and inventory the backpacks and supplies. 3-4 volunteers for the morning.
Tues & Thurs, 8/10 & 12, hand out backpacks, keep inventory and records. 1 volunteer each morning.
Fri, 8/13, distribute remaining backpacks and clear out the conference room. 3-4 volunteers in the morning.
We will be at the Catholic Charities Lake County office, 671 South Lewis Avenue, Waukegan, IL 60085. The hours are from 9 am until noon. If you would like to sign up to help or if you have any questions, please contact the project coordinator, Sue Fowler, 847-782-4126 or sfowler@catholiccharities.net. Thank you!
