ANNOUNCEMENTS



NORTH DALLAS SHARED MINISTRY NEEDS


1. Food - The need to purchase unusually high quantities of so many food items and the paucity of food items available for purchase at 14 cents per pound from the North Texas Food Bank are causing NDSM food purchasing costs to soar.

2. Volunteers - All sorts - primary care physicians, dentists, nurses, hygienists, interviewers, pantry workers, clothes closet workers, data entry people. If you want to volunteer, NDSM has an opportunity. Remember all 500 workers are volunteers. Call Dixie at 972-620-0671.

3. Clothing - Clean, used clothing especially children's clothing and adult clothing suitable for labor-type employment. Outgrown school uniforms or facsimiles are a huge need as school is about to open and NDSM will be inundated with requests.
