HELP AFGHAN REFUGEES AT CAMP ATTERBURY
With the recent arrival of thousands of Afghan refugees at Camp Atterbury, most with few to no belongings, assistance is needed to make sure our new neighbors' needs are met. Grace UMC members can help in three ways: Make a monetary donation to Grace, marked "Refugee Assistance”, or make a donation to the Red Cross. Donate the following NEW items: modest underwear and clothing for all ages (no shorts or tank tops), shoes for all ages, especially children (preferably no sandals), powdered baby formula (sensitive), diapers, baby wipes, feminine hygiene pads, toiletry items, ready to eat shelf stable foods. Or, donate from our Amazon wishlist for delivery directly to the church: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/2FKSWPV40E32?ref_=wl_share. Volunteers are also needed at Camp Atterbury on Wednesdays to help distribute items. Volunteers MUST be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 and must pass Red Cross background check clearance prior to arriving on base. Email bethstillabower@franklingrace.org for more information.
