The diapers and wipes that Fred dropped off cheered up all our volunteers and the generous donation of $300 and $1000 more is such a blessing! We are thrilled to be able to help so many and were so grateful for the air conditioning!!

Christine, I stopped by to let you know we approved additional funding last evening for $1000 to help off set your Air Conditioning and operational costs.
|
Recently Brother Fred Ciociola dropped off $300 worth of Diapers and Wipes. We had also approved the $300 in funds we provided in September. I am hopeful these donations will help you in your special duties.

|
We will be holding a coat drive for all types of Children and Adult sizes and I know you said coats are in need. We will do our best to secure clean slightly used coats.

Add to that the fun of a festive season like fall, and you have one terrific opportunity to make some great memories with the kids. Here are some silly, and yes, corny jokes and riddles to help put some fall smiles on those faces.
