MDIHS Community Service Class Collecting Items For 6th Annual Teen Bags For Holiday Cheer Drive

During Christmas time many organizations are involved in insuring that children have gifts under the tree, but there aren't many that look after teens. That's why the MDI High School Community Service Class is working to provide "holiday cheer" bags to teens in need in Hancock County. This the 6th year they have done it, making between 35-50 bags per year

They are looking for "teen stuff' like water bottles, jewelry, makeup, perfume, nail polish, hair ties, lotion, bath fuzzies, fuzzy socks, throw blankets, hats, mittens, scarfs, gum, mints, tic tacs, chocolates, nuts, beef jerky, candy/treats, deodorant, body spray, lotion, socks, toothbrush, toothpaste, water bottles, chapstick, art and school supplies. They're also looking for fun mini toys such as silly putty, fidget spinner and the like.

Items may be dropped off at the MDI High School Main Office or at The Restaurant Barn, across from Pat's Pizza in Ellsworth. In lieu of donations, monetary donations are also appreciated. Checks may be made out to the MDIHS Community Service Club.

If you need more information or to arrange alternative pick up or drop off items please email Desiree Sirois

Items need to be dropped off by Friday, December 13th.
