Celebrating mothers in need this Mother’s Day
This spring, in honor of Mother’s Day, St. Josaphat is partnering with the Courage Program at St. Germaine Parish in Oak Lawn to provide gifts to pregnant women and single mothers with young children. Since 1980, the Courage Program has helped over 15,000 women and children. Besides programs to assist with personal growth and parenting skills, Courage provides mothers with necessities they cannot obtain on their own.
Building on last year’s success, we are asking the St. Josaphat community once again to help celebrate these mothers in need by providing them with Mother’s Day gifts, such as pajamas, slippers, wallets, bath and body sets, nail polish, perfume and picture frames.
Donors may sign up through the Celebrating Courage Moms Sign Up Genius.
All Courage gifts should be sent/delivered DIRECTLY TO COURAGE
(not to the rectory) by MAY 18 to ensure the gifts arrive in time for their Mother’s Day meeting.
Please send the UNWRAPPED Mother’s Day gifts to:
Attn: Molly O’Grady
The Courage Program. 9711 S. Kolin Ave. Oak Lawn, IL 60453
For questions, please contact our Celebrating Courage Moms Organizers,
Carol & Amanda Galuhn ([email protected]).
We are so grateful for the generosity of our St. Josaphat community!
Happy Mother’s Day!
