Communities Together will again be accepting donations of diapers and children’s underwear for distribution to service organizations in Lawrence. Items will be collected throughout Lent and may be brought to the Noon services on Wednesdays. Underwear for young children, boys’ and girls’ “pull-ups” and diapers are urgently needed. Just one pair or package will make a difference to a child that goes without. Please make this a priority during Lent.
