A Nice State Grange Visit

We recently had our Michigan State Deaf Awareness Director, Lois Nichols, speak at Home Grange.

She went over many ways we can help the Michigan School for the Deaf in Flint. 

1.  Collect soda can tops, and other aluminum.  This includes CLEAN pie plates, lasagna tins and many more items.

 2.  Save Box Tops 4 Education Labels.  These are found on everything from soup cans to Kleenex tissue boxes.

3.  You don't have to wait until the holidays to help out the kids at the school.  Buy school supplies and send them along.  Items like pencils, notebooks, paper, etc are always needed.

A big THANKS  to Lois for the lovely talk and many other tips on helping bridge the communication gap.

See you at the NEXT event!!

The Home Grange's next exciting event will be our FIRST (hopefully annual)

Craft, Fiber and Flea Market!!
