We have an in house donation center at one o our offices, and you won't believe how many people are helped by it. Everything is washed, sorted by gender and size, so our homeless families can get what they need very easily. They can even come use the washer and dryer for free. Thy don't even have to bring soap, it's all provided for them.
I've actually been called a few times by my coworkers when they need shoes for a preteen girl. I'm always happy to give up one of my newer pairs of shoes.  |
This is a great idea. The work you do is really important, and I hope you enjoy it. We are always involving our high school students in a variety of opportunities for community service such as feeding the homeless and Habitat for Humanity. I am constantly amazed at the contributions that our young adults make in the community, and I'm very proud to be of our "kids."
