Thank you for your generosity!
Thanks for reposting this list. The people at the tent city are quite friendly–even invited me to share their donated dinner!–and super grateful for even the smallest donations.
Stuff you can dig out of some closet that you don’t even use can really help. And you can feel good about both helping people AND cleaning your closet. 🙂
Note that Tent City 3 is moving to Haller Lake (I think) Jan. 1. Some Methodist church off 1st around 130th. The contact person listed above has all the specifics if you’re interested.
Let’s not forget about these people–and others in need–just because the holidays end.
Best to all,
Cindy
