The Women's Guild led a very sucessful school supply drive in July.  They filled 48 backpacks full of school supplies using class lists from West Des Moines schools.  Students in need at Sacred Heart School as well as many other schools in West Des Moines will be thrilled to recieve a brand new backpack with everything they need to start the school year off right!  Thank you Sacred Heart Parishioners for your generous donations!  You have helped put a smile on a child's face!
