I sent off two boxes, yesterday, filled with the qt sized ziplocks. I had a wonderful time gathering the good things inside them. People everywhere helped me. Shops deeply discounted items, one woman standing behind me at the checkout simply handed me a handful of cash when she heard me tell the clerk what my purchases were for, even the local dentist gave me free dental floss, toothbrushes and toothpaste. It was an amazing outpouring of love and charity. You can count me in anytime you want donations. Thank you, Kelli, for what you do and the difference you are making in these children's lives.
