Under the coordination of Sisters Charlotte Shen and Betty Azucena, the Relief Society in cooperation with the Young Women conducted the annual Outreach Service Project. The Relief Society first collected used backpacks for assembling kits for children in poor countries. They collected 18 backpacks and assembled them with school supplies, including pencils, erasers, notebooks, children's books, and stuffed animals. Sister Azucena brought the assembled backpacks to the Montgomery County Homeless Shelter on Thursday. Today despite the threat of Hurrican Irene, Sisters Chen and Gee, our two elders, and the Brother Azucena brought lunch for 31 people at the shelter. They also left enough dinner for 80 people.
Through this service project, the sisters delivered their love and concern for our community. The Relief Society thanks those who donated backpacks and those who served and the young women for preparing the back-to-school kits for the homeless children. They are so grateful that we could reach our goals with all your love.
