| SCHOOL PAL-PAKS List of items needed HERE |
It is almost time for school again
and stores are already stocked up
with school supplies. This year
while you are out shopping for
school supplies with your children
or even just walking by the
supplies at a store stop and pick up
a few things for a child in need.
The Church of the Nazarene
operates numerous primary schools
around the world, providing quality
education for children.
Unfortunately, children overseas
often do not have the supplies
needed for school. In countries with
economic challenges, families cannot
afford to purchase supplies, or
siblings are often required to share
the supplies.
In response to the need, Nazarene
Missions International partnered with
Nazarene Compassionate Ministries,
Inc. (NCM, Inc.) to provide School
Pal-Paks.
The School Pal-Paks were
introduced in 2005 and more than
3,600 Pal-Paks were received
between June and December 2005.
The cost of each Pal-Pak is
approximately $10.00. This is only
$5.00 per child.
