What is Kid Junction?
It is a local mission provided by and operated through the
Galax First United Methodist Church on W. Center St. (across from the Fire Department).
It is funded by donations and staffed by volunteers.
It serves families with children (birth through middle school age)
once every four months if needed.
Each child in the family receives personal hygiene items: toothbrush, toothpaste,
body wash, a washcloth, diapers, wipes, lotion for babies, one set of clothing
(new or slightly used), underwear, shoes, socks, etc. at NO CHARGE!
Backpacks if needed and available.
It is open from 10:00-12 Noon on the 3rd Monday of each month.

Many thanks to all who participated in and supported our UMW Sunday. This is always a big day in the life of our unit. Our next big project is the Angel Tree. We hope to have the tree up sometime during the first week in November. That will give you almost a month to shop for your “Angel”. We would like all the gifts back no later than Sunday, November 29th. We will distribute the gifts the first three days of that week. Thanks in advance for your help with this project. Our next meeting will be Tuesday, November 10th. Ruth Sizemore is in charge of the program. We will have more information closer to the day.
