Tax Deductions: If you wish to itemize your donations for tax credit, please prepare a list of goods to be donated and their monetary value before making your donation. This list can be signed by Sister Lucille when you make your donation.

The Need is Great: There is a lot of work that goes in fundraisers and the money is desperately needed.  When you read in the Lewiston Sun Journal about the needs of the Good Shepherd Foodbank among others, know that our own food pantry has doubled its number of recipients in the last months... not to talk about the furnace breakdowns, oil requests, mortgage payments to avoid evictions or CMP bills to avoid disconnection!

Monique Schreiber can vouch for this as she has now taken over her responsibilities as Assistant Director of Loaves and Fishes.
If anyone has an idea for a new fundraiser, we welcome it. Loaves and Fishes' needs are greater than ever and donations are down.
With more cuts coming from Augusta, many social services programs will be cut. This will put even more pressure on local charities. If you can't help with fundraisers, pray for a miracle that will fill our coffers once again.

Garage Sale Items: Starting January 11, any donations for our Garage Sales, including small appliances, furniture, and clothes will once again be accepted at the convent. We are  gladly accepting donations of food and money for Loaves & Fishes.

Monetary donations in the form of a check can be made out and mailed to: Dominican Sisters, 61 Lisbon Road, Sabattus, ME 04280. You can also deliver your donation personally at the same address.
