Refugee Boxes (Yellow Bag Sundays April)

Each month on the first Sunday you’re encouraged to take home a re-usable yellow grocery bag, put some non-perishable items in it, and bring it back the next week, or soon thereafter. In April in place of our yellow bag donations, we will be putting together “donation boxes” of items for kitchens and bedrooms in the refugees’ new Wichita homes as the Refugee Support Team continues to seek ways to support International Rescue Committee (IRC) as they work in the area of refugee resettlement.

The bulletin board near the coffee bar lists specific supplies, their cost and where to purchase them. Consider having your Sunday School class or your family complete a box and return it to the volunteer office OR choose one or two items OR make a monetary donation, and we will shop for you (make checks payable to Grace with “refugees“ in the memo line).

It is not necessary that you provide a box. In-kind donations of used items are also welcome (with the exception of mattresses and bedding).
