The Salvation Army – Tools for School
Applications accepted July 19 and 20
Toledo, OH (July 17, 2017) – It is time to start thinking about going back to school. If you are a parent and are concerned about getting school supplies for your child local organizations formed Class Act Lucas County to make it easier for you this year. Lucas County residents can simply call 2-1-1; after answering a few questions the operator will help you find the best way to receive school supplies for your child.
One of the organizations providing backpacks is The Salvation Army. They are accepting applications this week, July 19 and 20 from 9:00am-11:00am and 1:00pm-3:00pm. The Salvation Army is encouraging parents to call 2-1-1 first to make sure another organization isn’t providing backpacks at their school or in their area code. If you are referred to The Salvation Army you will need to bring with you a photo ID, proof of address and birth certificates for all school aged children you are applying for.
The Salvation Army also has Tools for School programs in Ottawa and Wood County; Ottawa County residents can contact the Port Clinton Salvation Army service center at (419) 732-2769 and Wood County residents can contact the Bowling Green Salvation Army service center at (419) 352-5918.

Mother’s Day by Terry McCauley
Good Morning Everyone!Welcome to another beautiful day in paradise. Look with the eyes of your soul and see the beauty in others and you will see you are in paradise.
Sunday (May 14) is Mothers Day, a day that is set aside to honor and thank our Mother and all Mothers including Grandmothers, Step Mothers, and Foster Mothers. Mothers are the embodiment of life and love. They give life, nourish life and share life all with love. So yes, let’s thank our Mothers and tell them we love them on Sunday and every day. Even if they have passed on to the next life, tell them. They will hear you. They will know.
Also please note that Saturday (May 13) is Birth Mothers Day. Birth Mothers should be remembered and thanked too. Birth Mothers are mothers who placed their child for adoption. They gave life to someone and then made the decision to let that life, their child, be nourished and loved by others. I can’t imagine how difficult that decision would be. But they chose LIFE! And that’s a good thing. I imagine that there could be times when they would question: Why did I do this? Or, Did I do the right thing? So if you know a Birth Mother may I suggest that on Saturday you affirm her and her decision. Birth Mothers are the embodiment of life and love too.
