Charity Quilts

These two quilts will be finished and dropped off at a womens' shelter in a near by city next week.
Do you donate?


Have you wondered if you could make a difference, big or small, in someone's life?
You can... just by doing!
I remember reading a blog quite some time ago about a gal who was striving to make a difference!
It didn't have to be clothes or quilts, although these things are needed and appreciated.
The shelters need the necessities as well,
things like:
toothpaste & toothbrushes
shampoo
soap
feminine products
brushes & combs
deodorant
toilet paper
paper towels
tissue
bandaids
razors & shave cream

It wouldn't take much to put a couple of extra things in your cart as your cruising through
Walmart,
use a coupon,
skip that latte for a day or two.

Shelters are filled to capacity with people needing a refuge, food, warmth, safety,
understanding and help.

All the shelters in a city 45 minutes from where we live have been filled to capacity since October!
The temperatures have recently dropped dramatically here and this will only lead to more clients.
I'm sure it's the same where you live too.
Make a difference in someone's life.
