We  assembled birthing kits for third world countries to provide a clean birthing environment for mother and child.  We sent 200 kits with the University of Buffalo Nursing Mission Project to Ghana and Belize in January 2024 and another two dozen will be taken to Guatemala by a Mission Group in February. We will assemble kits again next spring.

We prepared two dozen Birthday Bags for a local Food Pantry providing the items needed for a birthday party for children.  We also collected diapers and sanitary items for those in need.

Members prepare dinner for patients’ families staying at the Grace Guest House.  We have also volunteered to assist with their events.

Club members assisted Persons Against Trafficking Humans (PATH) prepare for their Holiday Party packaging gifts for survivors and their families.
