North Dallas is partnering with the Church of the Incarnation to address the needs of these kids. The need is great - personal items (deodorant, toothpaste and toothbrushes, soap, shampoo), sleeping bags, socks, snack items (must fit in a backpack). And of course, donations are accepted to purchase items.
Erin Pendleton, the Mission and Outreach Project Manager, at Church of the Incarnation, provides take home bags every Friday morning for these students. If you are interested in helping, please contact Ms. Pendleton:
