Yet another successful year packing boxes! 21 boxes were packed to the rim with all sorts of goodies collected throughout the year. Shampoo, soaps and lotions complimented the magazines, small gifts and make-up all donated by friends and family.
The kids had a ball decorating the boxes with card tops from Christmas' past as well as packing it as full as possible.
Each box also included a Christmas card signed by the child that packed the box as well as a picture of that child. The child's age was also added to give the Seniors a feel for who they received the gift from. This year we had children from age 2 to a young teen.
Donations are being accepted all year round so please hold onto your Christmas cards, travel shampoos and soaps and any little gifty item you may not need. If you do not want to store all year please drop off at my house any time. My front porch receives fun little packages throughout the year full of little items and cards from anonoymous friends.
Thank you to all who make this project possible!!
