Backpack drive

Will you buy a new backpack this summer—for yourself or for children returning to school? Do you have any used backpacks stashed in a closet?

The Diocesan Borderlands Council is looking for new or used backpacks to give to the residents of La Casa de la Misericordia y Todas las Naciones, the Diocesan-sponsored migrant shelter in Nogales.

Fr Henry Hoffman is a member of the Council and will take your donations to the shelter in August. You can give Fr Henry your backpacks in person or leave them in the church office. The deadline is Monday, August 15.

If you have questions, please email Fr Henry fatherhhoffman@gmail.com.

Thank you!
