This year, for our Conclave service project, we will be working with two different groups. Cradles to Crayons and Interfaith Social Services. Both require bringing items to Conclave.

Chapter Children’s Book Donations:

Interfaith’s Children’s Book Program

• Children’s books for Interfaith Social Services in Quincy: Interfaith is a longstanding and well-respected organization that has a food pantry, counseling, and other services for South Shore residents.

• Their food pantry aims to nourish the mind as well as the body. Just the mere presence of books in the home impacts children’s academic success, vocabulary development, and future job attainment. When available, each food pantry client receives a bag of age-appropriate books for their children on each visit. Whether board books for infants, picture books or chapter books, they aim to get books into the homes of all their young clients.

• We’d love your gently used children’s books for ages 0-12! Please, no books with torn covers or missing pages, or that have been colored in. If we get at least one book per DeMolay, we could help a good number of young children in the state of Massachusetts.

We will also be packing backpacks with school supplies for Interfaith Social Services as well. The school supplies are being donated by Old Colony Chapter of the Order of DeMolay. We thank them for this great donation.
