Bucks for Blessings

Leclaire Christian Church informed everything about its Bucks for Blessings collection. The church announced it through its Facebook page. The fund is intended to support its partner Leclaire Elementary School in Edwardsville. 

Bucks for Blessings provides funds to LCC volunteers for purchasing, packaging, and delivering food to beneficiaries. These beneficiaries are students that the church believes could benefit from extra assistance over the weekend.

The congregation encouraged all to consider giving to the Bucks for Blessings fund.

Leclaire Christian Church provided options for donations. Those who want to donate may do so in person on the first Sunday of the month. Another way is to give any time through LCC Online Giving by choosing the "Bucks for Blessings" fund in the drop-down box.
