DRMM to give free back-to-school supplies, food boxes
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.
