Memorial Gifts


Did you know that you can give memorial gifts through Living Water? If there's been a death in your family or a friends' family, it's a great way to remember that person. It honors that person by helping others. Living Water helps the less fortunate in Hutchinson County with food, clothing, financial assistance, school supplies and Christmas gifts. So when you give a memorial, it's an investment that gives over and over to others. We send a very nice letter to the family or families to let them know of your gift. You can also send a gift in honor of someone you love or respect.

Kids & Backpacks

Anna, Rachel & Aaron Madden helping distribute backpacks to kids

Living Water gave away over 130 backpacks to kids in Hutchinson County this week! These backpacks were filled with supplies the kids will need as they start to school. We're so grateful to Sherry Wingate for spearheading this project and for the many wonderful volunteers that helped make it happen. Lots of kids will be starting school in style.

2010 School Supplies for the Classroom

This year, Living Water embarked on a new project. Hutchinson County probation office had always provided school supplies for the teachers' classrooms but because of new state rules, they were no longer able to do it. So they asked us if we'd take it on...and we have. This week, we have given school supplies to the teachers of Hutchinson County for their classrooms. Lots of supplies.

We certainly wanted them to feel welcome at their new spot, so we appealed to their sweet tooth!

They were able to take what they thought they'd need. All we asked is that they left enough for those coming behind them.

We had things for preschoolers and all the way up to high schoolers.


Lots of things!


Our aim was to have some happy teachers...and I think we accomplished that goal!
By the way, teachers, we intend to stock school supplies all year long, so when you run out, come on back!
