TOOLS FOR SCHOOL
Tools for School is coming up next week, and there are three ways you can help provide school supplies to kids in DuPage Township!
1. Visit the Chic Fil-A in Bolingbrook from 3 to 10 p.m. TODAY (Aug. 4). Chic Fil-A will donate 20 percent of your order to The Sanctuary Church to purchase additional school supplies for Tools 4 School.
2. Drop off school supplies at The Sanctuary this Sunday! Please place your donations in the bins near the Info Table.
3. Join us at 7 p.m. Monday for a fun, high-energy packing night at The Sanctuary! It’s an evening fit for the whole family, featuring games, music and packing backpacks for children in DuPage Township who might not otherwise have school supplies.
