Clothing Drive Update - 122207

I wanted to write a quick update for you concerning our Home for the Holidays campaign before we take our Christmas break. And all I can say is WOW!

Operation Clean Closet was a huge success. And by huge I mean that we took in enough clothes to almost fill our response trailer. As far as a total, we are still crunching the numbers. But we are estimating 50 to 75 large garbage bags of clothing were delivered yesterday! With all these donations, I am also estimating that there are a lot of F2W supporters out there running around in their "undies" this Christmas!

So what does all this mean? This means hundreds of needy children, youth, and adults will be receiving FREE clothes, jackets, and blankets this cold winter season. Simply awesome!

More on this in next month's F2W Currents.
