Backpack Program This year we have expanded our program from 6 children to 23. This was
made possible by the generous support of many in our congregation, Martha Circle, the staff and teachers at Ocean City Elementary
School and a donation from Susquehanna Bank. The Backpack Program supplies 2 breakfasts, 2 lunches, 2 dinners, drinks and
snacks. We also include 1-2 books on each child's reading level.
The cost is $25.00
a month per child for 10 months. You can also give a one time gift for any amount or bring in enough of one type of food for
21 children. We make sure all the packs have identical foods in them. The food needs to be individual sizes and
cans must be flip top. You can also volunteer to bring in baked goods or fruit, or to help pack up food, deliver packs to
the school or pick up the packs from school. All of this is available to them because of the
generosity of members of our congregation. You know who you are and all monies, supplies and time are greatly appreciated.
We are looking for Books from reading levels K-4. If your children have passed these
levels and you would like to donate them for next year, or if you have access to books at these levels and would like to donate
them please let me know. Thank you again for your support. If
you are interested in helping please contact Linda Gilmore at 443-664-2237 or you can email her at lazydaysinoc@comcast.net.
