Thanksgiving and Christmas Food Baskets
OLHOC parishioners have been involved with distributing food to the needy during the holidays for many years. Food donated from our parishioners, food purchased through the Catholic Charities Share Food Network, and food we purchase from grocery stores is used to fill each basket. Last year 50 baskets were distributed for each holiday; next year the intent is to increase that number to 60. Volunteers are needed to assist in purchasing, sorting, and filling each basket. Additional volunteers are needed to deliver the baskets. A call for volunteers and donations will be made in Oct/Nov.

New and gently used coats (and boots), for adults and children, will be collected in the early Fall (Sep / Oct). The items collected will be given to Catholic Charities of Charles County for distribution.
An announcement of collection dates will be made in the bulletin.
