"Today was crazy town at the closets, we had a full house! Everyone's kids needed summer clothes! It is amazing how fast it goes out the door; in one hour about 300 lbs of clothes, 12 bottles of mouthwash, a case of paper goods, six deodorants, a new stroller, 8 baby blankets, a box of toys, 9 coloring books, 7 hello kitty watercolor print sets, 5 full size shampoo bottles, 20 toothbrushes, and 7 pair of shoes left the closets! Thank you to everyone who helps us sort, purchase, and gift to these families in need!"
Look at the variety of items that were needed and put to good use. We're not just looking for your gently used clothing, but anything else that someone without a home might need. Kids in shelters need "entertainment" (toys, coloring books, crayons, craft supplies, books, jump ropes, etc.) too.
Take a look through the free boxes at garage sales too, last year I found a box of about 12 newer, beautiful bras for free, just because the lady didn't feel like pricing them!
If you're local to me, and want to donate before Gypsy Soiree III, give me a call or text and I can always take donations in (thinking summer clothes now especially, and sandals, etc.).
