This year, St. John’s received donations of care and food supplies that were loaded in backpacks and distributed to homeless people in the Minneapolis area.
The 6th graders collected socks, hats, hand warmers, etc. to spread warmth to the homeless. We collected over 750 items to be delivered! They also made Christmas cards to be delivered with the items. All the items were delivered in Minneapolis on Christmas Day!
