Thank you Tara B for this thoughtful donation. Wow......what a nice pile of personal care items. Soap, lotion, shampoo, toothbrushes and more. These are needed all year long. AND LOVE this nice think warm scarf. It's such a nice size and can be really wrapped around someone to keep them warm. While today, as I write this post, the weather is nice here in Central Ohio...hubby and I closed up all the windows in the house yesterday and the day before and turned on the heat again! Seriously, yesterday morning it was only 42 out. That's not comfortable weather if you're living in the elements, so this nice warm scarf is indeed still needed.
Also......please click the picture to enlarge it. I want to point out the gift packages Tara made. There are nicely crocheted cotton wash cloths that she's folded and paired with a large cake of soap, then tied with nice twine and placed in a zip lock bag. It's such a simple touch, but really looks so nice. So much like we're presenting them with a gift. I really love this idea. Well done Tara! Glad you thought of that.
Please keep up the good work and stay well, during these Covid times.
I can't get the photo to enlarge, but I can figure out the contents so its ok. We call them "blessing bags", and when we lived in Portland people in the church passed them out to the homeless they came across at stoplights and intersections. We usually included some shelf-stable snack food as well.
ReplyDeleteNice job Tara!
Thanks Karla, sorry you had some tech issues.
DeleteVery nice donation Tara B! Putting the washcloth and soap together in a bag is a good idea.
