HEY GOOD MEMBERs & STAFF.

A close friend of me & my family has come under hard times when the man of the house got into trouble. This is not someone I work with, but a OLD FRIEND from back in the day.

Well his woman who is alone with little family to help them has been scrampling to make ends meet, but things are looking very bleak for them.
Now I know this family, good honest GOD fearing people, but even gods flock have to face challenges daily. But to help a kid is to bless yourself. Kids should not have to face hardships, besides I know them & want to help, I am asking here cause you are like my brothers in many ways.

If any of you could find it in your heart to send them a DONATION of NEW STUFF, TOYS, CLOTHES, BOOKS, SHOES, this would indeed be a blessing.

"I WILL NOT ACCEPT MONEY DONATIONs" - This is no scamm, just some kids who are in real need. She told me crying they had to ask for free food from some places. I was in tears & will send money & other stuff.

So if any of you can think of something or anything that 2 boys ages 7 & 9 can use to play or wear. PLZ NO BROKEN, DAMAGED or USED CLOTHES. DO CONTACT ME for more info.

peace & god bless

Hey Mike, try to find out like the kids shirt sizes and pants and shoe sizes, that would help us see what we have. Also as far as books, ask the mom what types of books they read, and at what reading level their at. No sense in giving them say "To kill a mockingbird" when they are at a scooby doo level. see? Good looking at for the family bro!

Big thanks I know they have KIDS R US or TOYS R US down there.

Again big thanks on their behalf.

Once we do this I would like to take a pic of all the stuff maybe even get the pics in on it, if the MOM will do that for me.

Yep good idea, hard to pick the right gift, it can take 30 min finding a toy they want.
I know for a fact that there is a WAL MART near by. Target too I believe.
Big thanks for thinking of others.
peace

My heart bleeds for women and children in bad situations.
Give me some info, and I'll get some stuff going that way. I'd feel priviledged to help out.
It is cool if we send those gift cards that work like a credit card? I can get the Visa, debit, gift card, and send that so that the woman is not limited to a dept store for herself.
