Fraternalism in Action: This is Black Friday weekend. We are joining forces with Branch 24 in a project for humanity by collecting travel size soaps, toothpaste, toothbrushes, deodorant, etc. to fill personal hygiene bags for the homeless for our Fraternalism in Action event. This project will also serve as volunteer service hours for the youth of Branch 24 who will fill the bags which will be donated to the West Side Catholic Center. Please be generous in the spirit of the holidays and bring on your travel size stuff – either bought at the store or collected from your travels to hotels. “Whoever is generous to the poor lends to the Lord.”
