EECM Off-to-College Kit

EECM expects to have 15 students who are heading off to college this fall and who will need a little TLC in the way of school/dorm supplies. The C+C Committee has agreed to be a sponsoring congregation for one of the students; Margaret Miller and Louise Ford have graciously volunteered to organize the contributions!

Priority items include: towels & washcloths, plastic shower caddy, laundry detergent, dryer sheets, twin extra long sheets, laundry basket, mesh laundry bag, and plastic clothes hangers. Other items needed include a 1" three-ring binder, stapler and staples, dry-erase board for door (with markers), highlighters, mechanical pencils, pens, sharpies, planner/organizer, spiral bound notebooks, and pocket folders.

Miscellaneous items that would be nice to include: tissues, liquid hand soap, roll of quarters, and a $25 calling card.

Congregations are asked to collect and present the items to EECM in the laundry basket (of whatever appropriate size) by June 30th, if possible.
