  • The Stake will be hosting an event for September 11th National Day of Service.  We plan to assemble hygiene kits for two organizations:  Rio Valley Relief Project (which services Refugees) and Cook Children’s Hospital (to help the families of children in emergency care).  During the month of July we are hoping to collect enough supplies to assemble 800 – 1,000 hygiene kits. We have put together an Amazon wish list so that people can easily purchase and deliver supplies more conveniently.  The supplies will all be delivered to one home to collect for the event, which will take place at 6:00 PM on September 11th at the Stake Center.
