Friday March 26, 2013

We picked up more than 4500 items last night for the baskets to be delivered on April 20 during Spring Clean 2013. We also received 11 more names for that day making it a total of 340 baskets for delivery. We also received the name of a family of five that we will deliver a basket to today. The husband has been out of work for three months with an injury and they are having a hard time getting the everyday items that a family with two small children and teenager needs. We also had some items donated Sunday, so we’d like to say thanks to R & D.

We will be picking up more donated items and buying some dish washing soap for the baskets today.  Thanks, B.

We are still below our target amount for Spring Clean 2013 and all donations are appreciated and very much needed.  If you would like to help with donated items or money, you can find a list of needed items on our Whats in a basket page and our How can I help page.

Thanks in advance,
Marilyn
