ReSolutions sponsored our first ever Linens & Towels drive this past Saturday. We setup the drop-off in the Trinity UMC parking lot and received used towels, pillows, comforters and many other household items. I was very pleased with the diverse group of people who responded to our call. We kept our marketing effort low key to keep from being inundated during our first event but we still had donors come from areas we did not expect. I also received calls state-wide from people who wanted to get involved.
The drive may be over but not the need. We are still accepting linens and towels and we are already planning our next drive for later this summer. The Community Furniture Bank is also accepting furniture and household items.
Thanks to all those who gave, who passed along information and supported our drive.
UPDATE: After assessing the donations we are happy to announce that we received 61 bags of various sizes that will help 50 families.
