"Through our Giving Tree project, we chose to make Christmas special for providing gifts for people served by our Sisters of Notre Dame at Saint Francis School, Metro Catholic School, Blessing House, and the Renee Jones Empowerment Center (RJEC)," explained Director of Campus Ministry Mrs. Beth Davis.
Through our relationship with the RJEC, we supported a pregnant woman who had recently been rescued from human trafficking," Mrs. Davis said. "Our students and staff also donated bicycles to be refurbished by RJEC for children whose families cannot afford them."
Students made several dozen fleece blankets for the homeless women and men served by Cleveland's Saint Malachi Church and Painesville's Saint Mary Church. Early in the Advent season they also assembled Boxes of Joy to be delivered throughout the world by Cross Catholic Outreach
