(continued from newsletter)…Julia and Reece were there to welcome us with open arms, give us a tour of the mobile unit and tell us a little bit more about how our gifts will be used to support the homeless and outreach youth. They expressed how wonderful it was that the 78 backpacks we had to give them were not all the same. They told us that often these children do not have the chance to pick out something that is unique that they can call their own. Our gifts would give them that chance. What a pleasure it is to partner with such an amazing organization and share in circulating our good to our greater Phoenix community. A big thank you to all of you donated backpacks and supplies as well the members of the community outreach team who assisted in this project. We could not have done it without you.
Yours – In the joy and spirit of giving,
Karen Blakeley
