District Friends: Prom Dress ( & Suits) for Low-Income Students From Pastor Tony Whitehead: Bonham Community Church is working on a project to reach out to low-income students in the area. Fannin County (and Bonham) has a serious poverty issue. With this issue, we can all easily recognize the need for food pantries, housing aid, etc... However, one area often overlooked is our local high schools. With prom quickly approaching, the students are on our hearts. Many of these low-income students lack the ability to purchase new dresses and suits! BCC wants to help and we are planning a "King's and Queens Project" and a special event for teens on April 20. Here are our immediate needs: We need dresses! We are seeking donations of good quality used dresses and shoes to provide for these young ladies, and good dress shirts, ties, pants, shoes, and jackets (and/or donations to sponsor tuxedo rentals) for the gentlemen. We are asking that the dresses and suits be cleaned first if possible before donating, to keep the costs of this project lower. Please join us as partners in this project through prayer, donations, and helping us to pass the word. " Donations can be made to Bonham Community Church by contacting Pastor Tony at (228)563-0423 (cell) or [email protected].
