Toy Donation Drive for Haiti
A local midwife will be traveling May 14th to Haiti to live in an orphanage and provide care for at least 50 young ones. These children do not have toys to play with, and are in great need of other basic supplies too.
We will be donating jump ropes, balls, and other traditional playthings, but we ask that if you have any gently used (and well-loved!) toys at home that can be shared that you please bring them in for donation. These toys need to be small and light for travel purposes, and appropriate for ages newborn to 12.
We have donation boxes at both locations, and will be collecting through May 10th. A list of other needed items follows.
Also, through May 10th, any new items purchased for donation at either of our stores will receive a 20% discount.
The following is a list of other much needed items:
Receiving blankets
Ibuprofen
Tylenol
Antacids
Prenatal or multi-vitamins
Please join us also on May 4th from 7-9 pm at Gossamer Fiber Arts on Burnside for a CraftWerk Social making soft and cuddly velour bunting dolls for the younger children at the orphanage. We ask for just a $3-5 donation to cover some costs (collected at the door).
