HALOS is a public and private partnership that provides much needed resources and services to abused and neglected children served by Charleston DSS. The annual Back to School Drive is a rewarding outreach project to help these children begin the school year equipped with the supplies they need to learn. In order to meet the HALOS deadline, supplies must be returned to the church office no later than Thursday, July 28 or to Sunday services on July 31. Thank you for your continued support!
There are 4 ways to support this year's drive:
1) Sponsor an individual student by providing all items on their supply list. Please contact our coordinator Nancy Altschul at nancy3364@aol.com to be assigned a student. If sponsoring an individual student, items will need to be taken directly to the drop off site in North Charleston or coordinated with Nancy for pick up/delivery.
2) Make a financial donation to the Church Office to "Christ Church Anglican" with "HALOS" noted on the memo line or offering.
3) Shop the Amazon HALOS Wish List that includes the supplies listed below. All items will ship directly to a CCA Staff Member's home in Goose Creek for delivery to HALOS. Most of the items can be found in stores for better deals but this is a great way to shop from home.
