The time has come for our annual College Care Packages! Each year, we pack up goodies that the congregation has donated and ship them to students so that they arrive right in the middle of finals. This is a great way for us to continue supporting the undergraduate and graduate students who have called First Baptist Greenville their church home.
Please turn in your donations now so that we have plenty of time to assemble, pack and ship these care packages! There are collection bins in the Front Office, and the deadline for donations is Sunday, November 16. Please consider donating the following individually wrapped items:
• Pens/pencils
• Erasers
• Easy mac & cheese
• Small cans of Pringles®
• Ramen noodles
• Chewy granola bars
• Fruit snacks
• Snack-size trail mix and Goldfish® crackers
• Individual bags of cookies or crackers
• Microwave popcorn
• Rice Krispy® treats
• Spare Halloween candy (no chocolate, please!)
We will collect homemade baked goods to add to the packages on November 30.
If you have a current college or graduate student in your family, please encourage them to fill out the college contact update form here: https://forms.gle/LiLLSLDGinwB7iS8A
If we do not have their current school email address and mailing address, we cannot send them a care package.
