School Supplies Needed for Faith, Harahan

SCHOOL SUPPLIES NEEDED FOR FAITH LUTHERAN SCHOOL—HARAHAN, LA.

Faith Lutheran School in Harahan is the Lutheran school that Iowa District West and East have adopted to help them to recover after Katrina. Faith recently reopened their school in a different building and the following items are needed. These are things that were lost in the hurricane.

Since this list will go to many people, it is important that communication is good on the items purchased and the items still needed. If you wish to purchase individual items from this list, email Ellie Menz at ellie.menz@idwlcms.org so we don’t ‘double up’ on the items. Secondly, you may wish to have a fund raiser, etc. and send the money so the items can be purchased for the school. Make checks payable to Iowa District West-Faith School or Iowa District East-Faith School and send to Ellie Menz, 807 W. South, Jefferson, IA 50129.
