I received this as a forward and I usually never forward forwards but this one struck me. I wanted to read it because I was a child that grew up on the computer and this could had been me. Even more, with our currently culture, this can happen to even more children and I pray never to my own. Therefore, I hope you enjoy this and share it with those that you feel it could bless. Whether the story is true or not, it still sends a message that should be recieved by all considering the times we live in.

Please see the list of items below:

  • Batteries
  • Canned tuna
  • Soap
  • Toothpaste
  • Flip flops
  • Plated
  • Dust mask
  • Sleeping bags

  • Powdered evaporated milk
  • Band aids & first aid
  • Toothbrushes
  • Towels
  • Cups
  • Utensils
  • Medical supplies
  • Clothes

Please bring items already bagged or boxed as that would make it most easy for me to transport again. You can drop them off at my office (turn by turn directions provided) between the hours of 12pm and 5pm on Friday, January 29, 2010. Please call ahead to ensure that someone will be there, 336.510.9642.
