ONCE-A-MONTH COLLECTION PROJECT

This project would be wonderful for schools or youth groups, but everyone is welcome to give it their best. It is extremely easy and you will be amazed by the results.

Any time during the year your group can brainstorm about things they would like to donate to needy families. Once eight to twelve ideas have been selected, you can decide which items you would like to collect during each month of the school year.

EXAMPLE:

OCTOBER COULD BE BLANKET COLLECTION MONTH WHERE THE STUDENTS BRING IN AS MANY WARM BLANKETS THAT THEY CAN FIND.

APRIL COULD BE EASTER BASKET MONTH WHERE THEY OFFER TO ADOPT A FAMILY IN THEIR LOCAL CHURCH.

FEBRUARY COULD BE CANDY HEART AND VALENTINE MONTH WHERE THE GROUP GIVES THEIR COLLECTIONS TO A GROUP OF CHILDREN THAT ARE IN THE HOSPITAL DURING THE HOLIDAY.

THE LIST GOES ON AND THE IDEAS ARE ENDLESS.

Once you've completed your collections, please contact the LOVE office for further instructions. "Remember that the most beautiful things in the world are the most useless; peacocks and lilies for instance." - John Ruskin, The Stones of Venice
