A FAMILY IN NEED

Moving into a new home is a daunting process; even more so for a single mother and her three young children, having had to flee their home to escape domestic violence. "Janet" moved out leaving behind much needed clothing, personal and household items. She works full time to support her family but is overwhelmed by the expenses of clothing, food, and the many items needed to make the house she is renting into a home.

Currently the family is in need of:

1. Storage bins to store clothing as there is little closet space in their new house
2. New or gently used sheet sets: twin and queen size
3. New or gently used towels: both bath and kitchen
4. New or gently used clothing:
5. Mom: business attire - pants size 0-2, shirts size small
6. 2 year old daughter : 3T
7. 5 year old son: pants 7 boys, shirt medium boys
8. 9 year old son: pants 14-16 boys, shirt large-XL

Please call with any questions or to arrange delivery of donations.

We appreciate your assistance with this family.
