Hi Kate,
The stuff I collected from my class was a success.
Together we were able to get a whole large bag of clothes, including:
2 sweaters
3 polar fleece jackets
1 pair of wool socks
1 pair of pants
2 scarves
5 toques
5 hoodies
2 pairs of gloves
1 puffy vest
and 1 coat!
I dropped the large bag of clothing off at Triage.

Hi Kate(and friends):: I
Hi Kate(and friends)::
I have bags of clothes collecting dust and fleece blankets that I never use so I'm organizing them to donate to a couple of places. I hate to think that there are small children on the streets in need but I know they're out there so I'm going to a women's shelter with a bag. I've contacted the Triage people to see if they can use this stuff as well. Thanks for lighting a fire under me, I feel bad that that I've been too lazy to make my way over there sooner...
Thx also for introducing me to this site. I'll be back for sure!

Marg88, I wanted to alert
Marg88,
I wanted to alert you that Phil will be going out tomorrow evening to do another round of collections. You might want to connect with him to see if he can pick up your donations.
I am looking forward to seeing you on ChangeEverything again soon!

Hi everyone who helped out
Hi everyone who helped out by picking and up and delivering warm clothing and blanket donations this week. You guys are awesome!! We have been able to help many people get warm because of your generosity, and we are even able to build up a stockpile to have on hand. If it's raining, it's cold so the need for dry warm clothing is always high. And our grateful thanks for bringing it around to the shelter, as we have limited ability to pick up donations.
