ANNUAL DONATION DAY 2009

November 1st was our big donation day, we donated over 1500 items to many shelters in York Region. Here are a few pictures of the representatives collecting there goods, and as you can see they were all so appreciative for what they received.

The Member were working very hard this year, so we were able to have a lot of baby blankets and afghans, so the Charities will have enough for all the little ones.

I am very grateful to have such a great bunch of ladies volunteering their precious time to make a difference in York Region. As always, I could not do this with out you.

I would like to thank you all very much.

Here you can see a few of the bags and a display of items on the table.
