The Service WIN class will begin making some crafts for a local nursing home when we return from Fall Break. During the next couple of weeks we are asking that you save any of your empty cans from home for a particular project that we are wanting to complete. Please bring them washed and tops/bottoms removed if possible!! Attached is a picture of what will be made so you will have an idea of the size of the cans needed. Please, nothing too large or small!
