Update - Had fun shopping !
Great news, I received 20.50 point towards the OSC fundingfactory recycling program. I sent in over 40 items and have received credit for 12 items so far. Waiting for them to add the other items to my account. This is a great program but its too bad no one really knows it exists. If more people knew that they could help children without spending a penny I'm sure more people would. I would think that most household in NH have a printer or two, if not many business in the area do and probably throw these items away.
Wow, shopping for 11 children was a blast. It was a really great experience. It's interesting that most of the case sheets show that the kids only want a few toys. Almost all of the kids though need clothes especially winter jackets and snow pants. Though $60 doesn’t really go far these days, when the sales are on it's amazing how much more you can get.
This week I also spent 3 hours at the SEA headquarters helping match sponsors to case sheets. Again, each time that I read these case sheets I'm amazed that there are so many children in NH in need of basic necessities like pants, shirts, pjs. We need to get the word out that kids right here in NH need help. I'm not really sure people know just how many children are in need.
