Wisconsin Juniors Help Kids Go Back to School

Members of Junior Court St. Clare of Assisi, Monroe, Wisconsin, successfully implemented a Back to School Supply Project to help students in the area.  Supply items included backpacks, new socks, underclothes and other things donated by parishioners, community members and local business/organizations. In addition to supplies financial contributions were made to purchase clothing.  When all supplies were received and clothing purchased the juniors prepared bags in the church meeting space before the event and set up in the St. Victor School parking lot as a drive-through pick up (in “normal” times the gymnasium is used as a store).  JCDA Court St. Clare of Assisi is sponsored by Court Mazzuchelli # 2609, Green Mountain, Wisconsin.  National Director M. Susan Champion Hicks is Junior Court Chairman and Court Chaplain is Monsignor Larry Bakke (who Susan describes “as a great supporter of the juniors and Catholic Daughters.”)  In the photo, Susan is seen at the table with her grand daughters, Berlyn (JCDA Charter Member) and Rigley. All were diligent about wearing masks but took them off to smile for a photo.
