SERVICE PROJECT FOR PREMATURE INFANT CARE-2/11/17
Holy Cross of San Antonio students will volunteer in a service project as they have done for the past five years. Holy Cross of San Antonio lends a helping hand to Children’s Hospital of San Antonio (formerly CHRISTUS Santa Rosa) in their effort to raise awareness and funds for premature infant care.
This Saturday, February 11, 2017 all are invited to help Holy Cross students make “Ask Me” boutonnieres. These boutonnieres are constructed from actual preemie diapers that workers from San Antonio and south Texas Sam’s, and Walmart stores, Stripes convenience stores, Corner Stores, and Dairy Queen restaurants will wear on their lapels.
An estimated 9,000 boutonnieres will be made and packaged by Holy Cross students this year. Please join us in the Holy Cross cafeteria from 9:00 a.m.-3:00 p.m. to help make boutonnieres. All are welcome.
This afternoon, Brother Stanley spoke at the Rotary Club of West San Antonio where he spoke on School Choice.
