Hello All,
Operation Sleep Tight is currently
taking donations for the mobile distribution site. Through Operation Sleep Tight, there are various ways to get involved in serving our homeless neighbors and
friends.
One way to get involved is to help
the kids stock up the mobile site with supplies. We are currently asking
for the following items:
Bar Soap
Travel Size Kleenex
Toothbrush
Toothpaste
Comb
Plastic Silverware (to be dispersed
into baggies)
Deodorant (both male & female)
Travel Size Wipes
Toilet Paper
Socks (any size, both male &
female)
Band aids
Neosporin
Travel Size Lotion (many deal with
dry skin)
Gallon Size Ziplock Bags
Sandwich Size Ziplock Bags
Sleeping Bags (http://www.walmart.com/ip/Everest-Mummy-5F-15C-Degree-Sleeping-Bag-2-Pack-Bundle/15077686)
We can pick up donations on Friday afternoons and Saturday mornings or they can be dropped off at one of our homes during the week. An address will be provided upon request.
Any monetary gifts can be sent to
Reunion Christian Community's Paypal Account: http://www.reunion.cc/
Please click on "give" and
enter in the Paypal notes that this gift is for Operation Sleep Tight's
fund.
We will be updating our list as
needs arise. If you'd like to receive our emails, please send us an email
and you'll be on the list.
Operation Sleep Tight will be going
out weekly to a couple of different locations as we partner with other
organizations that serve the homeless community. We would love to
have families join us once a month when it is convenient with your
schedules.
In the past two years, the kids of Operation Sleep Tight have handed out 207 sleeping bags to our homeless neighbors. The desire to have a mobile distribution site started with a dream of one young boy. It became a reality when the members of Reunion Christian Community donated enough funds to purchase the Shasta Camper. The outside of the camper is almost complete and renovations to the inside will begin in the next few weeks.
If you have any questions or would
like to partner with us in anyway, please feel free to email me at jacqueline.rizo6@gmail.com.
Thank you,
Jackie Rizo
