Clothing Closet Update

Athena Cares has decided to discontinue our Clothing Closet, due to lack of use. We have so many beautiful items our supporters have donated over the years, so it's time to get them out into the community where they will be more helpful. We donated our shoes to support micro-enterprise vendors in developing nations. The spring and summer clothing was transported to the Women and Children's Center, sponsored by the Open Door Mission. 

We will continue to keep winter coats and other select items on hand to serve our school community.

Quarantine Outreach

In the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic, Athena Cares members are still thinking of others. We brainstormed ways to help from home, and here are some of the ways kids chose to help spread cheer and kindness:

  • Collecting food for the local food shelf (we also donated 212 pounds of food items from the Athena Cares food pantry)
  • Masking masks to donate
  • Making signs/posters to show support for essential workers
  • Sending thank you cards to healthcare workers, police, and firefighters
  • Writing encouraging words on sidewalks
  • Painting and leaving Hope Rocks with positive messages around the neighborhood
