For more than ten years, MDJH has partnered with St. Patrick’s Mercy Home to provide gifts for their seniors who may not have anyone to give them a gift. They are too often forgotten at this time of year. Ours are the only gift they may receive.

We receive a list of wish items for seniors from St. Patrick’s Mercy Home.

Students are asked to bring in the items on the list below to their homeroom OR they can bring in a monetary donation for the purchase of these items. Every homeroom will also sign a Christmas card for the seniors. This is a very heartwarming project. Thank you for your continued support!

All donations need to be handed in to room 222 (Ms. Sauvé) by Tuesday, December 17.
