Would you help the parish children prepare a Work of Mercy during VBS week?

We would like the children to pack “Birthday Bags” for the House of Mercy and “Summer Snack Packs” for the Haymarket Food Pantry. But we need your help with the supplies!
Might you be able to donate something from this list?
Might you be able to donate money so that we can do the shopping?
We would like to be able to pack and give these organizations dozens of bags and packs if possible. 

The Snack Packs are filled with things like this:

Ramen Noodles
Single serve cups of Mac & Cheese
Fruit Snacks
Cheese/Peanut Butter Crackers
Small Bags Chips/Cookies (All Varieties)
Granola Bars
Oatmeal Packs
Juice Boxes
Brown paper lunch bags

The Birthday bags are filled with things like this:

cake mix
can of frosting
candles
small unisex gift like crayons, colored pencils, markers or stickers
balloons
gently used birthday gift bag

These items can be dropped off in the box by the faith formation office anytime between now and June 23rd. Thank you for your generosity!
