Thanksgiving Homeless Donations

Just a little bit out of the neighborhood but a Pinehurst neighbor passed this along and I thought it was very much worth sharing.

This Thanksgiving marks the 6^th annual effort to collect and donate much needed items to the homeless. Please consider contributions.

Since 2006, students and parents of St. Catherine’s School have served the homeless on Thanksgiving morning. This year we seek food, health care products and warm clothes. All food and sundries are sorted into small brown bags which students decorated with Thanksgiving images and words of support. StC parishioners and neighbors give everything directly to homeless  men and women on the streets of downtown Seattle early Thanksgiving morning.

What we collect and distribute:

• Food: small bottles of fruit juices, soy brinks, breakfast and protein bars, single serving cheeses, muffins, individually packaged fruit products (apple sauce, sliced fruits, dried fruit, etc).
• Health care products: travel-size hand sanitizers, dental floss, tooth brushes, tooth paste, hand wipes, Kleenex, bandages, and one-a-day vitamin packs.
• Clothing: fleece jackets, fleece vests, winter weather socks, gloves, scarves, fleece caps, blankets. Adult sizes only.

Please bring donations to St. Catherine School at 8524 8th Avenue Northeast Seattle between 8:30 and 3:00 before Thanksgiving or contact George for a pick up @ George@hayvencreations.com or at 206-859-9062.

Have a great holiday season. Thank you for your kind and generous considerations.
