Last week was amazing!! Scroll through to the end of this post to see what it looks like so far.

We have toothbrushes – more than anyone could ever ask or imagine, and many other toiletry items. Our little tuck shop is well on it’s way to being fully stocked. And we have so many donations we still have to go through! But we know you still want to be a part of this amazing community effort. If you’re interested in donating, here’s what we know we’re missing:

• clothing for boys and girls age 5-19, specifically:
  • socks
  • pyjamas
  • jeans
• spring jackets (adults and children)
• dental floss/picks
• deodorant
• Q-tips (smaller packs)
• mouthwash (please check expiry dates)

Please do not drop off medications of any kind. Remember: we can’t give out partially used bottles, tubes or personal items that are not in their original packaging.

Please, please, please: no housewares, furniture or larger items. We may ask for those later on, but we don’t have anyone to pass them onto yet. If you have a good idea that we haven’t considered (like the woman who offered a baby stroller) please contact the church office. We can’t take everything, so please do not be disappointed if you arrive and he have to say “no, thanks!”

If you would like to contribute your time to the effort, click this link and fill out the form to let the organizers know how you can help. If you have the means, we still encourage financial donations large and small.
