Dear Friends and Family,
As you may recall, last year our daughter Sydney collected personal hygiene items for Operation Mission Hope after being deeply affected by seeing a homeless person living on the street. Through your generosity Sydney was able to collect over 20 bags of items, which she personally delivered to the Mission. This year, through July 10th, Sydney will be collecting NEW SNEAKERS as part of a collection drive for the students in our community who are in desperate need. The goal is for each child in need to have a new pair of sneakers when heading back to school in the fall.
We will have a box set up outside of our home for anyone who wishes to donate sneakers to the cause and Sydney can collect them at school as well. Please feel free to contact either one of us to arrange another pick up time if needed. Sydney would also be grateful if you could pass along this donation request to anyone else who may be able to help. For your convenience she will be collecting money as well and will use the money that she collects towards this mission.
You can email us at: greenwald.melanie@gmail.com
Thank you so much for contributing to this wonderful cause and for helping us teach our children how important it is to give back.
