Fire Supply Drive Update

From the Distribution Center in Smithville-

Things NEEDED: Visine/eye drops, chapstick, Powerade, Benadryl, small packets of tylenol, new pillows, air mattresses, school supplies, backpacks, quart and gallon sized ziplock bags, new packages of underwear for all ages, mixes for teas/gatorade, pet kennels, pet food, grooming items , LADIES elastic waistband shorts/capris, ladies short sleeved shirts and tank tops...

They are pretty much overloaded with clothing, so if we can start collecting these things, that would help them. Also, deodorant, hand sanitizer, band aids, etc.

I've also read from several different sources that the local school districts (Bastrop & Smithville) are asking for gift cards so that students can get school supplies.

Our pile is getting to be huge! Thank you for all of your generosity. I know your gifts will make a huge difference to these families. I can't believe the extent of the damage and the enormous range of this fire. I hope that the 30% containment grows tremendously tonight.

All my best to all of you,

Mrs. C.
