Help Make Mother's Day Special
On Friday, May 8th,the BTA will be assembling 35 Mother’s Day Baskets for women taking refuge at Hope’s Door and My Sister's Place, local women shelters in Westchester. The shelters have provided a “Wish List” of items to be included in the gift baskets (listed below).
Please let Julia Brogan know if you would like to contribute any of the items (and quantity). Please keep in mind that many of these women leave in the middle of the night with only the clothes on their backs, so providing a bit of luxury to these women would be greatly appreciated, especially on Mother’s Day.
If you would like to find out more about Hope’s Door you can look at their website: http://hopesdoorny.org/programs-and-services/ or MySister's Place http://mspny.org/
On Friday, May 8th in the Home Economics room (B-114), we will be assembling and decorating the gift baskets with all the donated items. That afternoon, we will also make flower pens, which will be included in the baskets. Please let me know if you are interested in helping putting together the baskets and making flower pens on Friday, May 8th.
These are the items on the “Wish List,” please let me know if you can donate (and quantity).
We will need a total of 35 of each of these items to fulfill the "Wish List."
Loofah Sponge
Scented Body Wash
Hand Lotion
Nail Files
Nail Polish
Journal
Chocolates/Sweets
A copy of your favorite book
Anything special you think the women would like
All donations can be dropped off in Julia's room B-111. Please include your name on the clipboard, so that we know who left the items.
Really looking forward to being part of the reason why the women at Hope's Door and My Sister's Place smile on Mother's Day.
Thanks in advance for your generosity!
