To make this possible, we need your help!

Our stake has been specifically asked to donate the following:

New boys’ jeans (sizes 4–18)
New backpacks
Gently used children’s coats
Gently used hoodies for teens
Gently used shoes (all sizes)

We especially encourage donations of new backpacks and new boys' jeans, as there is a strong need for these items.

Please drop off donations at your local LDS Church Building

SNAP TALENT SHOW

The recent SNAP (Special Needs Activity Program) Talent Show in the Stafford Stake was a heartwarming celebration of the unique talents within our special needs community. Performers shared their gifts through singing, dancing, and more, filling the room with joy and inspiration.

A special shout-out went to SNAP for the incredible performance of a Taylor Swift song by Malia Spencer, which caught the attention of Bryan West, the official Taylor Swift reporter from USA Today. His recognition brought extra excitement and JOY to the event!

Thank you to everyone who supported this memorable evening, highlighting the love and unity that make our stake so special.
