A Heart-Lifting Challenge

Cara from Cara Quilts issued a challenge that took me from tears to cheers in one afternoon.  Take a minute and head over to her blog and read her story.  Amazing!

My challenge is this:

Go drive past your nearest shelter for abused women/children or the homeless.
See if there is a sign, if not call. Ask what they need.
Shelters are always in need of things like paper towels, toilet paper, new underwear, new socks, diapers, new hairbrushes, shampoo, tampons/pads, baby hygiene items, hand soap/sanitizer etc
It won’t cost much.

Drop it off.

It was astonishing what my small community needed and I didn’t even know it!

Thanks Cara!  And thanks to the rest of you who take up this Basic Challenge.  I would love to hear your stories!
