What It’s Worth?
During this holiday season and with the struggling economy and decrease in donations, we are encouraging supporters to donate items that our agency regularly has to purchase. Below is a list of examples with the appoximate quantities and cost noting monthly and yearly amounts. As 2008 comes to a close, we are hoping to collect a ONE YEAR supply of these items. As a result, 2009 will come with less cost and continued services to our residents. Please consider assisting us with this mission project. If you or your group are planning to do so, please contact us so that we can make the appropriate changes to our list of items/quantities.
