IMPACT CAMAS-WASHOUGAL was a huge success On June 6th and 7th! What an amazing day at Impact CW. There were approximately 70 community volunteers joining volunteers of St. Matthew to help sort and pack 150 boxes of food grocery gift cards or tickets for school families in need in Camas and Washougal. It all went so smoothly. Our continued prayers and blessings go out to these families. Donuts and cookies were enthusiastically enjoyed. Reni made the most amazing Impact CW “Thank you” cookies! Thank you, Reni! The Musicians were wonderful! Thank you, Tatiana, for organizing the musicians! Also, thank you so much for everyone who donated money for food and gift cards and the amazing volunteers who gave their time to plan, shop and help pack and deliver the boxes to 19 Camas and Washougal schools. We really made an Impact together!
