BRO

BRO collects new and gently used toys, Legos (sets are not necessary), stuffed animals, dolls, books, games, puzzles, art kit items, infant & toddler toys to distribute to around 5,500 St. Louis children at Christmas. Especially needed are toys for children 6 to 10 and small “stocking stuffer” items. Items may be placed in the BRO gray collection container.

St. Mark members were very generous to BRO in 2016. They donated items valued at approximately $4,300.00. This does not include the monetary donation from Deacons and PW. We especially want to thank all those who knitted, crocheted & sewed all the cute hats, baby items, blankets & scarves. They are adorable.

Around 400 new moms received layette sets from BRO in 2016. They are so thankful for the generosity of everyone. St. Mark members donated $900.00 worth of baby items for last year & donated 319 items at a value of $1,194.00 to be used for layette sets in 2017. For further information, contact S. Boeker  or L.
