volunteer – The Wish Project

Volunteers have been hard at work reorganizing our client shoe area. It was a big project, but it looks so nice and is well organized so sizes are much easier to find. We’re thankful to have these hardworking ladies!
Carol and Jeannine found that we are out of, or almost out of, shoes in the following sizes
Women’s sizes 5 and 5.5
Big girls sizes 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5
Little girls sizes 7, 8, 12, 12.5, 13.5
Big boys size 3.5
Little boys sizes 13 and 13.5

If you have shoes in good condition that your children have outgrown, please consider donating so that we may pass them in to families requesting them.

Thank you for sharing with friends, family, neighbors, and online groups that may have shoes to donate.

Joanne from CTI stopped by the warehouse to pick up BITS bags. Rob helped her load up her car with all the bags we were able to make up for her clients. These will soon be given out to local families with small children, to help with their development. We can’t wait to hear about all the happy faces that are to come!

Our team of regular volunteers are hard at work assembling BITS Bags! These bags contain age appropriate toys for infants and toddlers that will provide stimulation to help development. They will be going out to many local families in need soon.

If you’re interested in donating BITS Bags, you can find more info here https://www.thewishproject.org/bits-bags/

Jill and regular volunteer Vanna Howard spent some time putting away clothing. They found that we are out of men’s long sleeve shirts in size small and almost out of men’s long sleeve shirts in size large. The next clients coming to us looking for these sizes may now have to leave without shirts.

Thank you to board member Brittany, and her husband Ryan, for coming in and helping them out at the warehouse! They helped pass out auction items to those who came in to pick up. They also helped the staff by bagging face masks. These will be used by volunteers in the warehouse and also passed out to clients who come to the warehouse to pick up necessities. Thank you Brittany and Ryan!

Check out super volunteer Rob! He picked up two couches today from a local person looking to downsize. Not only did he pick up and deliver to us, but he also vacuumed the couch to get it in perfect shape to go out to the next client needing couches! You deserve the rest break!

Super volunteer Brenda is so thankful for all of the feminine products that our generous donors sent in this week. She was able to package up many kits of products that will go out to our clients in need. Thank you!!!!
