Some Dresses I Made for Our Kids

Here are some pictures of Easter Dresses I made and donated to some of our kids. (Someday I will figure out how to get these photos right.) I wish I could sew for them all - 2 are for sisters, the third for a "girly-girl" who likes to twirl - Peaches dropped off a dress for her that was blown off the porch before the family could retrieve it. The little girl knew a dress was coming for her and was very upset that it was gone, since it meant no Easter dress for her. I could not bear the thought and decided I would make her one. All three of these little ones received a dress, tights and shoes -

Thankfully, I just picked up a huge donation of children's clothes from my cousin and her co-workers at J&J so we have more nice things for our children. Thanks Barbara, Pat, Renee and Bonnie for all of your efforts!! Another of my favorite donors, from Little Egg Harbor, also gifted us with two bikes - I can't tell you how happy they will make a couple of our kids. Thanks, Bill!! Vince is in the garage as I write this making sure there is air in the tires since I am dropping them off today for Peaches. I also want to thank my good friend Dorcas, for a full pick-up truck of children's toys and gear and her continuing support of my efforts for the Reys of Hope!

A Thank You to Valerie from Mercerville!

Thank you for your generous donation - most all of your donation is already on its way to several different families who will be thrilled to receive such nice clothing for their children!! Your adult items will be distributed by Peaches when she returns - she has the master list : ~ )

Again, thank you!

We're Still Out Here

Sorry there have been no new posts lately. I have been busy collecting, sorting and helping prepare drop offs for Peaches. It takes a tremendous amount of time. I currently have the mother load of women's clothing - donated by my dear friend Sharon, in my basement to sort, wash if needed, etc.

Over the weekend I was given two bags of toys - from another of our favorite donors, a young mom from Hazlet, who has given so many beautiful things for our children. Thanks, Jenn.

Today Ruth and I are going to pick up more children's gear. These items go out as fast as we can get them - so please contact us if you would like to donate. We will arrange a pick up at a time convenient for you.

Thank You to Bill and Renee

Pat would like to thank Renee and Bill for helping an elderly man move. It is nice to know there are still people who volunteer their time. It meant alot to him. Thanks again for answering his message.

A Thank You To Us - We Appreciate Them!

Hello Pat,

My name is Nina, I would like to personally thank you for helping my girlfriend Laura and her daughter MacKenzi . I put the ad on Trash to Treasure for her. I myself have been helping her since November 19th when she came to New Jersey. (She is living with me) I found her a job and have been watching her daughter while she works (Before school & after). So I really have done all I can for them and again I would like to thank you very much. I was worried for them having nothing.

God Bless You,
Nina

Thank you Mike P.

From Peaches - we need to post a thank you to Mike P from Marlton for the extremely nice furniture which he even helped to load and deliver. Talk about giving...that is going above and beyond. Thanks again!!

Another Thank You To: Dana & Co., Jackson

Thank you so much for your generous donation of kids clothing and outerwear - we have many kids and babies whose parents will be very grateful for these much needed items.
