Our Grace Chapel Boston Project Team has been working with Boston Project and Tech Boston Academy located in their neighborhood to collect clothing, toiletries, and school supplies to fill Catie’s Closet located in their school for students in need. Grace Chapel is holding a "Fill The Bus" drive in August collecting gently used boys’ and girls' clothing for ages kindergarten through high school, new socks and underwear, new toiletries and school supplies. There will be several Catie's Closet boxes in the lobbies and The Common Room (just inside the main doors at the Lexington Campus) August 4, 11, 18 and 25. We are so thankful for the generosity of our congregation!
At Tech Boston Academy last year this meant:
- 2 sisters whose home burned were able to get clothing and toiletries
- Newly arrived Haitian refugees we're able to get clothing appropriate for the winter weather
- Kids had winter coats and raincoats
- Students were able to stay in school on days when they needed a change of clothes
Items should be dropped off at the Lexington campus.
