Halloween BuyBack
Cash for Candy. We want to help local parents limit the amount of candy their children consume after Trick or Treat. Kids can come and earn cash for their candy and support a soldier at the same time. Each child is eligible to receive $1 per pound (up to 5 pounds) for all unopened candy. The candy will then be sent to our troops overseas. We will provide materials for the kids to either create a card, sign a card, or draw a picture for the soldiers that will receive their candy.

"We will also be showcasing the school's latest "BYOD" (Bring Your Own Device) Program". This includes our four mobile language labs, as well as our Dual Credit Program. This program allows our students to receive college credit for all technology courses taken at PCHS," said Rachel Ellington, Director of Enrollment.
Not only do the Celtics experience excellence in the classroom, but PCHS students also succeed in the athletic/extracurricular arenas. The Celtics are home to 30 State Championships, 67 State Trophies, hundreds of Regional Titles, Sectional Titles, and Conference Championships. The outcomes of the graduates from the Class of 2017 demonstrate our elite and premier education at Providence Catholic.

Holiday Diaper Drive
What: Diapers, baby wipes, and diaper rash cream
Where: Rep. McDermed's office, 11032 W Lincoln Hwy, Frankfort
When: November 20th to December 20th
This month long drive will help to address the struggle young, and often single, mothers have in keeping their infant or toddler clean, dry, and healthy. Donations will be collected at Rep. McDermed’s district office and will benefit Catholic Charities expectant mother program and Journey, a local non-profit organization that helps young women and families in need.
In Illinois 52% of births are covered by Medicaid and 23% of families live below the poverty line. However, there are no government subsidies to help purchase diapers and wipes, products which are taxed at the highest sales tax rate.
“It’s the season of giving and in lieu of a food or clothing drive, I wanted to bring attention to an under-served, but still very important, need in our community,” Rep McDermed said. “Most people don’t realize that government assistance programs, like food stamps, don’t cover diapers. As a community, we are measured most by how we take care of those who are down on their luck. I am asking residents to share their good fortune this season and help others who are struggling.”

An Opiate recovery Group meets at Peace Lutheran Church each Tuesday night from 7:00 ? 8:30 p.m. Are you or a loved one struggling with heroin or opiate dependence? This support group meeting is for those struggling, those who love someone struggling, or those who just want to learn about the epidemic of heroin and prescription pain medications in our community. Addiction is a family disease, because everyone in the family suffers if someone is addicted to or abusing drugs. Too many people lost in addiction feel hopeless. The good news is people can and do recover, and lead happy and productive lives. Please join us! For more information please contact Tom Moore at (815) 354-3195.
