THIS WEEK

BLOOMERS FOR BOTOMS – LAST CALL AND PICTURE
Sunday, November 22 | Front of the Chambers Center| 12:00 pm
LAST CALL! The “bookpacks and bloomers” that our TWC community has donated will be sent to our Sudanese little sisters in early January. This is the last weekend for donations to this project. If we can collect 500 more cotton briefs, we will have enough to give each of the 600 girls three pair of panties packed in her bookpack. If you don’t have time to shop—it is finals week, after all—we will gladly take your donation and purchase the panties for you. Remember, girls cotton briefs (not bikinis) in sizes 6-16 are needed. Thank you in advance for all of your donations to this bookpack/bloomer project. This is our LAST CALL! Please answer the call.

A photo of our TWC community will be taken at noon on Sunday, November 22, 2009.  This photo will be included in the bookpacks so that our Sudanese sisters can see their TWC big sisters and put a face to the bookpacks and bloomers they will be receiving.  Any and all should meet in front of the Chambers Center on Sunday, November 22, 2009, at noon.  Bring your best smile!
