Mittens, Hats and Scarves
For many years we at BMCC have collected winter items for the families in the community that are not able to purchase the items themselves. This year is no different. It is even harder this year with the price of food and other material items going up.
So, we will collecting new hats, mittens and scarves again this year in hopes to keep the old and the young warm this winter.
Please drop off the items at the Bar Mills Community Church located at 13 Hermit Thrush Drive, Buxton.
There is a box in the lobby.
At the end of the month the items will be donated to:
- Local elementary school
- Meals on Wheels in Buxton/Hollis
- Alfred York County Shelter
If you would prefer to make a monetary donation
Please make checks payable to BMCC with notation on memo line Mittens.
