Packing Instructions

Sue just received some specific packing instructions from Reeve, Lolly and CC.  They are posted on a link to the right as PACKING INSTRUCTIONS so you can print them out if you need to.

THANK-YOU to everyone that came to our meeting last week.  Our project has truly taken flight!  I am most grateful for the way you have all relied on the Spirit for your own wards participation.  When we do that greater things happen.  As each of you put together suitcases, remember to post if you need additional things to complete them.  I know that all together we will have all we need.  Each ward will be responsible either alone or along with the wards in your buildings to get the items to the humanitarian center

Just a quick reminder about our meeting tomorrow night at 7:00 at the bunkhouse!  We need to discuss ways to proceed from here.  The donations have been amazing!!!  Thank-you so much for all your help!  I'll call and remind you in case you don't see this message -- Sue

Donated Items Available to Complete Suitcases

Hello Everyone,

The Swanson Foundation has donated 

100 Sets of Sheets (new in plastic)

100 Hand towels (new)

100+ bars of soap

100 Blankets (new in plastic)

If there are any of you that need any of these things to complete missionary suitcases I would be happy to get some to you. We will be putting some together for our ward but I think there will be plenty to go around.

If you email me or or call before our meeting on the 23rd I could even bring them to you then. If you need them earlier, let me know and I could meet you. 

They also donated a lot of small first aid kits that could go into a 72 hour kit if anyone needs any of those.

Please let me know what is needed.

Thanks,

Donations are Pouring In and Piling Up

Wow!  It's way exciting and almost overwhelming to see the donations pouring in, especially at Valley Market.  Today when I went in, both boxes at the entrance were full and they had four shopping carts in the back that were chuck full.  And then as my son and I were loading it all into the back of the car, a sweet lady pulled up beside us and said, "Oh, am I too late to donate?"  She had just stopped by to drop off a few bags.

Tonight our young men came over and started sorting things in my garage.  It kind of put things in perspective as we saw all the work they had done and then looked at the remaining pile and tried to imagine ever getting through it all.  Looking forward to our meeting next week to brainstorm how to manage it all.

It's fun!  What a great project!

Cory

     I just want to thank everyone for your support at our fireside on Sunday!  It was great and very well attended.  I think we have some real momentum going.  The box in Valley market and the article in the paper has given us some great contacts!  Thanks!  I am going to schedule a meeting at the bunkhouse
after school starts on August 23, Thursday @ 7:00pm.  Please be taking pictures and bring any you have, I want to make the first part of a video for September 29th women's conference.  I would also love any stories you are aware of.
     We need to share ideas again and make some plans for transporting and packing the containers.  Bring any other ideas you have to our meeting as that's where it all begins- thanks to you, our project has taken wings!!!
Love,  Sue

Scarlet's Naturals

Hey :) My sis-in-law Desiree Loud Ferrin came to our last meeting and offered her assistence and cooperation for our project. She wanted me to post her site so that you can she what she has to offer.
ScarletsNaturals.com She can also be contacted at sales@scarletsnaturals.com

Being an online business owner has given her some great contacts in that realm and she says if you're just curious about other products, containers, shipping arrangements etc. she will be so happy to answer questions, do some reasearch or find a better price for anything you're looking for in the efforts towards Zimbabwe.

And to all who made it to the fireside. . . aren't we incredibly lucky to be a part of such an amazing work!! Thank you Sue, Reeve, CC and Lolli! :)

Best wishes :)
Becca
