Nov. update:
We collected animal food for the no-kill shelters in
our area. Students brought in cat and dog food to
help these non-profit shelters. They were VERY
appreciative of the donation. We donated over 200
lbs. of food to the no-kill shelters in Gainesville.
Dec. update:
We donated two bags of clothing and 6 toys each to
the two little girls we adopted for Christmas. We
also gave the Grandmother gift-cards to CVS, Publix,
Walmart, and a phone card so she can call relatives
during Christmas time. Thank you for giving this
Christmas to our adopted family.
Looking forward
to January: We will be collecting blankets,
jackets, and coats during the month of January. Make
sure they have been recently cleaned and package in
a bag with your name on it for you to receive
points. These coats/blankets go to St. Francis House
and other homeless sites in Gainesville. Last year
we gave away over 100 coats/blankets. Let's try to
double that this year!
February is
our annual candy drive. We need to raise about $2000
for the American Cancer Society and to help those
going to convention in April-May. Get your selling
shoes on and get ready.
