About this Event
Many teens in our community are the first generation in their families to head to college, and we would love to show them our support and pack them some dorm essentials kits! These kits will include necessary supplies such as sheets, fans, and toiletries to make moving in a little less stressful.
Join your neighbors on Saturday, June 15th, from 10 am to 12 pm at The Empty Corner to wrap these kits to be distributed to graduates in District 214.
We need YOUR help to pack up and show our support!! Join us for a fun morning of working together to serve our community; we can't wait to see you there!
