Help provide CWS School Kits:

Educating children is one of the most important development steps
a community can take, and a CWS School Kit is a great way to
jump-start a child’s education. Church World Service is providing
large quantities of CWS School Kits to international partners,
and needs more kits right away. Your congregation or group can help!

One pair of blunt scissors
Pads or notebooks of ruled paper 8-1/2" X 11", containing 140-200
sheets of paper. No filler paper, please.
