Backpack Drive For Foster Kids August 1-8
We are once again collecting school supplies to fill backpacks for children in foster care the week of August 1 to 8. Basic things like pencils, pens, erasers, folders, notebook paper, crayons, markers, rulers, glue sticks, and colored pencils will be collected. Backpacks are welcomed too! Start watching the sale papers toward the end of July when everything starts to go on sale and place your donations in the box at church.
UPDATE ON THE ADOPTION TAX CREDIT
Give thanks that the Adoption Tax Credit was extended through 2011 in the "Obama-Care" health bill. Jedd Medifind did a great job breaking this down a bit at his blog at Christian Alliance for Orphans. This link should take you straight to it: http://christianallianceblog.org People need to check with their accountant about how this specifically applies to them, but they have now made it a "refundable" instead of a "non-refundable" credit. That could be huge for a lot of people.
