Cuidando los Ninos Donation drive

Saturday, April 28th, 2007

We had a tremendous showing of support for our Cuidando los Ninos  donation drive. This is the homeless day care where Emily volunteered after high school.Emily’s Uncle Mark even flew in from California to surprise us!

Thank you to everyone that participated. She would be so proud of all of us.

Paul and I dropped off the donations on May 2, 2007. It was a full car and trunk load of diapers, toys, clothes, food, books,pots and pans, glasses, bath and body products , baby care products, gift cards and checks. They were very pleased.Thanks again to everyone.
