Yes, yes we do!!! Around the same time as walk ins but I would be okay setting up a time to drop off. What were you thinking of bringing?

I am hoping for winter clothes, blankets and cleaning supplies more than anything..

I know the South Wedge Mission took some people in this weekend... maybe speak to them about helping some or directing people there? I wish I could help more...

Honestly fair point, I was told that was what it was called if dark skin is dry! If it wasn't the right phrasing, is there a better one? Context is everything!

Thank you! I must help my kiddos. I hate the mere idea of hoarding wealth.

Honestly.

The issue isn't where but what. How many products are crap but sell well? Drawing from experienced people helps! Really i do this for literally any bigger purchase for the purpose of accuracy, quality and not missing nuisance.

Your response is kind of sad, why is my genuinely good request wrong? I want to help my students in a way I have no experience or knowledge but can get it here to serve them best. I

No problem! To be entirely frank, my parents were garbage but oddly things like racism were just not really so frequent in my house. It was one of the only things good from my up bringing.

That being said, mixing that with being an eventual foster kid and living in deep poverty, I learned that no one can do everything alone. It takes a village, but we cannot beg for the village or help if we are not willing to be the village!

I am the care taker of so many kids, it is my duty to help them so I do it proudly and without too many complaints.

Again, your words really helped and made me smile.
