This clothing will sent by the State department to the refugee camps the last week of January. The United States government is asking for this help from communities throughout the mid-west. The clothing needed is: Sweaters for children and adults Sweat suits Gloves and mittens Insulated flannel shirts NO OTHER ITEMS PLEASE Due to shipment overseas, the clothing should be new. Coats are NOT needed as the people will be wearing robes over any thing sent. I can collect any of the above items you may want to donate next Friday at the Children's Home - or I can make other arrangements with you. The committee will take them to The Mid-West Mission distribution Center in Chatham, Illinois on January 23. The State Department will air lift them from there. There are 3,000,000 refugees who need this assistance. If you have any questions, you may call me at 513 248 8596. Please help if you possibly can! Thanks so much!
