Cabot Church of Christ 'Backpack for Kids' Program

For nine years the Cabot Church of Christ has collected money from their congregation to support the Backpack for Kids program.  When Cabot school teachers Chester and Becky Brown started working in the district, they realized there was a need for school supplies for some students.  So the Browns took this need to their church, and they were eager to help.

The money raised for this program is given strictly by donations, funds do not come from the church budget. This year the Cabot Church of Christ raised $8,917 and that money will help over 450 children in the Cabot School District!

In the nine years the church has donated to the 'Backpacks for Kids' program, they have contributed over $60,000 to the Cabot School District!
