I went around my neighborhood first asking if I could get a few cans of
food for the food bank. I collected two paper bags full. I then called around my friends and family members to see if they could go through their food pantries and give me at least 5 cans each. I now have six paper bags full of cans and boxes of food for the food bank. I still have more to collect and have to go pick up on Friday. I am hoping to have ten bags full when I am finished. I will be taking down to the food bank Monday after done collecting.
I have also started collecting clothing items, shoes, and accessories to be
given to a womens shelter. Currently have a few pairs of shoes for kids and adults, coats, and purses. I over bought for Christmas Sub for Santa and thought why hold on to it. People dont only need things at Christmas a famous saying I hear from the food banks and shelters. So onward to asking the family to help. I am planning on taking my nieces with me to deliver these items once I am finished collecting enough to make a trip down. Letting them see how to be grateful for what is given to them.
