Naomi Girls Project
Solar Box Kits and Repair Water Wells
The Naomi Girls will be making solar boxes from kits to charge cell phones where there isn't electricity. Each solar kit will cost $100. We will begin to assemble the kits when we can pay for 10 kits. The repair of the water wells is $1,500 each. We will continue to work with the nonprofit, Designs For Hope, with Chris Bond with our project. The Naomi Girls would like to invite the Trussville First UMC family to help make these projects possible. If you would like to help with donations, please write your check to TFUMC for Naomi Girls and either solar boxes or repair wells. We need prayers for this project so that includes all ages can help. If you have any questions, please contact Linda Shaddix.
