Dear parish members of St. Francis,
The Ladies of Charity of Milwaukee thank you for your very generous donation of $1,585.00. We understand this was collected as a special collection in March [the 1st Sunday 2nd collection].
We thank you for choosing our organization and supporting our mission. This donation will be used to purchase new socks and underwear along with winter jackets, hats and gloves. Last school year, we were able to provide clothing for 1100 needy children in the Milwaukee area. This is only possible because of people like you and your generosity. On behalf of our families, we thank you again for your generosity of spirit.
Blessings to all of you.
s/Mary Roets and Susan Westlake, co-presidents of Ladies of Charity
