The Detroit Rescue Mission Ministries will be holding an event to help those in need in the community on Friday, August 29, 2014!

As schools reopen for the 2014-2015 school year, DRMM be giving away school supplies and food boxes, including a fresh turkey, to metro Detroit school kids and their families in need.

Last year, DRMM was able to help more than 100 families in need with back-to-school supplies! This year we hope to be able to help the same amount, if not more!

What: Giveaway of back-to-school supplies (like new backpacks) and food boxes, including turkey.

When: 11am Friday, August 29, 2014 (until supplies run out).

Where: The Tab, 138 Stimson Street, Detroit, MI.

Who: School kids and their parents (low-income families and homeless persons).

Please note: In solidarity with school children affected by the deadly ebola virus in West African countries like Liberia and Sierra Leone, we are asking kids and their parents to dress in white t-shirt, and to join us for three (3) minutes of prayer/silence.

Also, proof of low income/eligibility for public assistance, and proof of guardianship of a child may be required to receive the giveaways.

Many thanks and God bless.
