Duquesne City School District Backpack Drive

SCHOOL’S OUT! TIME FOR VACATIONS AND FUN!

Duquesne City School District Backpack Drive

Do you know that Ben Franklin once said to George Washington “I like spring but, I really love summer”,…Well, I can’t really prove that Ben actually said that but, I do have your attention, right?

We look forward to spring and summer for all the fun and leisure these seasons offer us. These two seasons also present to us, at Saint Nicholas, the opportunity to extend Christian charity to second grade students in the Duquesne City School District.

Yes, this is the time of the year when we begin the drive to raise money for school backpacks. If you recall from past years, these children really are enthused to get these backpacks! The backpacks contain all the school supplies they need to have a successful academic year.

If you are able, consider donating to the worthwhile campaign. Each backpack costs $25.

I’ll be happy to collect your donations. If you are paying by check, make the check out to Saint Nicholas Orthodox Church and put the word BACKPACKS in the memo section. Thank you for your support. Best regards to all…George J Matey.

This is the time of the year we partnership with Focus – North America.
