MOPS and Mary's Place

This year we are partnering with Mary's Place as a way of serving together. We are donating new or gently used items to their shelter for women and children in need as a way to support this wonderful agency and its mission.

Here is their Wish List of current needs and ways we can help:

Mary's Place Wish List

• Financial gifts
• Rain coats, ponchos, umbrellas
• Backpacks, tote bags, re-useable grocery bags, wheeled luggage
• Underwear, bras, socks (women and children sizes)
• Gift cards for grocery, department and drug stores, and coffee shops
• Feminine hygiene products
• Diapers (sizes 4, 5, 6), pull-ups, baby wipes, baby formula
• Soap, shampoo, deodorant, razors
• Toothbrushes, toothpaste
• Vitamins, pain relievers, cold/allergy medicine, cough drops, first aid
• Adult diapers
• Milk, breakfast cereal, juice
• Juice boxes, kids snacks
• Hair care products
• Blankets, new sheets (twin size)
• Flashlights
• Reading glasses
• Whistles

We will be collecting these donations at the next two meetings, both on November 18th and December 2nd. Bring your items and they will be passed along to Mary's Place.

Also, there are tons of other wonderful ways to get involved with Mary's Place this holiday season. We each received a few pages outlining volunteer opportunities and if you did not get your hands on that, let us know. What a great way to serve this Christmas!

One more thing--if you have an item that doesn't quite meet the needs on the Mary's Place list, consider it for our very own MOPS Accessory/Toy Exchange coming up on December 16th!
