How many days until school?

Hi everyone!  Gavin informed me today that there are 22 days until school starts!  I just can't believe it.  No matter what we do, summer seems to just fly by so fast without ever having enough time to do every fun thing we want to do. 

In the next couple of weeks I will be posting a sign up calendar for the fall semester so be on the look out for that!

There are several things we need for next week:

18 cans soup
18 cans ravioli
9 easy mac envelopes
18 cans corn
16 boxes of raisins
5 pudding cups

Thanks for your continued support and I hope everyone has a blessed week!

End of June needs

EVery May I think "I can't wait until school's out so things can slow down a little."  Never happens!  It always seems that summer is busier than any other time of the year but somehow I always forget.  


This is what we need for this week:

9 peanut butter

9 jelly

9 sleeves ritz crackers

11 cans green beans

Needed by 6/18


We're leaving town next week so I wanted to post the items we'll need for the following week as well:

2 cans soup

5 cans ravioli

12 cans corn

11 raisins

10 puddings

Needed by 6/25

A HUGE Thank you to Danielle Krahl and all the little girls that attended her Girl Scout camp this week.  Each girl brought an item for Bear Necessities every day and stocked some items for the whole summer!   Someone said to me earlier this week, "Kids can make a difference."  SO true!

Donation Update

I'm getting ready to head out to Dardenne Prairie's park to celebrate and I'll post some pictures of that later.  In the mean time I wanted to post our donation list for this week in case anyone is running out to the store.

This week we need:

12 breakfast bars
17 tuna
18 ritz cracker sleeves
17 cans soup
17 cans corn
2 applesauce
18 pudding

We have plenty of apples for the whole summer (I think) so please don't bring any more apples.  If you'd like to donate fruit of another type, that would be great!

Thanks everyone and have a blessed weekend!

Give Generously

So, we got through the first week with abundance!  Yesterday we were headed out to run some errands and found this in the garage:

Isn't it just beautiful?!  All I could think of was the following verse:

Give generously to the poor, not grudgingly, for the LORD your God will bless you in everything you do. Deuteronomy 15:10

This week we will need the following items by the morning of Tuesday June 5 so that bags can be packed for Wednesday morning's delivery. 

18 cans chili

6 beefaroni

12 easy mac envelopes

17 cans peas

17 juice boxes

10 nutragrain bars/granola bars

18 apples
