Personal Care Items Always Needed at the Shelters

 Thank you Dianne L from California for this thoughtful and always appreciated donation of personal care items.  Dianne has donated lotions, shampoo's, lipbalm and other necessary items.  The personal care items are needed by all the shelters we supply, as well as the folks living under the bridges.  Think how dry your lips and skin get, even when you have a roof over your head and how much these items are appreciated by those in the elements, as well as those getting nights here and there in the shelters.  Thank you Dianne.
Having just gotten back from an out of state wedding followed by some vacation time, I too was able to toss some items in collected from the hotels.

 Thanksgiving is approaching, please keep those less fortunate in your thoughts and prayers, and do what you can to ease their path.
