One thing I should have mentioned in the 2009 Report of Giving
was the fact that 13 bikes were provided for foster children. We
could use some bicycles in decent condition again this year.
However, if the chain is rusted beyond repair and the tubes are
gone, we do not have the resources to repair.
For 2010, a few
things that have happened include: 1 trumpet for a school music
program; 8 families helped with toy needs; 12 families helped
with home boxes; 500 jars of baby food purchased and
distributed.
We thank you very much for your generosity as
you have answered our requests for supplies in the form of yarn,
child booster car seats, baby swings and bouncy seats and great
items of clothing and so much more.
Please stop by and visit
