Teenage Queen & I went to go pack for Project SOS yesterday at the Banquet. The Banquet helps folks trying to make ends meet & offers a variety of services. Project SOS (Supply Our Students) will provide a backpack & necessary supplies to start school, a value of around $200 which is huge if you are barely getting by as is.
In order to make this happen, you need an army of volunteers. My policy is I buy a round of supplies when I buy stuff for my kids & just drop it in the box when we leave the store.
In order to go from boxes all over town to backpacks being handed out today, someone needs to sort out the various supplies by type and by grade. Little elves had everything together so when we arrived yesterday, we were ready to go.
Teen Queen & I were on pen patrol for the 6 & 7 th grade backpacks. In less than two hours, we filled hundreds of backpacks.
Women of God can never be like women of the world. The world has enough women who are tough; we need women who are tender. There are enough women who are coarse; we need women who are kind. There are enough women who are rude; we need women who are refined. We have enough women of fame and fortune; we need more women of faith. We have enough greed; we need more goodness. We have enough vanity; we need more virtue. We have enough popularity; we need more purity. Margaret D. Nadauld
