Hi folks
This is the information re the ‘bag collection’ being conducted by my next door neighbour I mentioned at our meeting on Thursday.
"This year I am getting involved in the ‘It’s in the bag’ initiative with Share the Dignity and supported by Bunnings Stores: See details below:
‘What is ‘It's In The Bag?’
Each year Share the Dignity collects handbags filled with personal care products. These Christmas gifts are then distributed to homeless, at-risk and women experiencing domestic violence.
What can I donate?
Choose a handbag you no longer use or buy a new one, then fill it with items including shampoo, conditioner, a toothbrush, toothpaste, soap, deodorant, sanitary items and anything else you can think of that will make a woman feel special.’
I am hoping that some of you might have some largish handbags or small backpacks that you no longer need and are happy to donate. I will fill and take to Bunnings for collection. I would also appreciate any donations to fill the bags as well. I will be delivering the bags by the end of November.
Please bring your bags along to our meeting on Thursday 22nd November.
Many thanks
Don
