Hi all, me again….I'm looking for volunteers to help me with Warm the Children this year. It's an organization that provides new winter clothing and footwear for the community's children in need. I will need people to volunteer to meet families at JCPenney to provide them with the purchase orders, and meet them at checkout to collect the purchase orders when the families are done shopping. It's quick, and easy, and is so very meaningful for these families having trouble make ends meet. I can meet with volunteers at the lodge next week for any questions. Please comment or contact me if interested. Thank youHappy Thanksgiving to all our 957 Lodge members!! … See MoreSee Less

Thank you all so very much… I’ll let you know when I get the purchase orders. And we will set up a time to meet at the lodge to go over details.

When this happens, it’s usually because the owner only shared it with a small group of people, changed who can see it or it’s been deleted.0 CommentsComment on Facebook
