Weather Delays Clothing Drive

Well, seems mother nature hasn't really been on our side. Due to the massive blizzard, we'll have to cancel this month's clothing drive. This is heartbreaking for us because this is the month where we try to give the most. But just because we can't be there, doesn't mean you can't help out your community. Giving your time is the best gift you can give this season. Have a wonderful holiday season and very prosperous new year!

We will try to make up for our absence by possibly having a couple of clothing drives in January. Stay tuned!
Thanks!





Happy
Holidays!

November 2010 - Update

November came in with a big chill! Good thing we're going to have some warm coats and sweaters on hand for our drive this month. But we can always use more! We are also taking food donations and anything you can contribute for various families during the holiday season. Canned food items would be greatly appreciated. We could really use mens clothes too.

We know we're all stressed out over how we're going to feed our own families this season, but there's always a little something you can do to help make a difference for someone less fortunate. As always, if you would like to donate, please email us at 5thcolumncommunity@gmail.com

THANKSGIVING:

Welcome to the NEW Blog!

To better help the community we have started a blog to help the community to contact us and where we will be and how they can contribute to our cause.

If you have any clothes to donate, please make sure they are recently washed. Please, no undergarments. For spring, we could definitely use baby clothes and products, shorts, t-shirts, and shoes.

Food and household goods (ex: toilet paper), is always welcomed as well.

Thank you and keep in mind, WE have the power to help each other and help the community.
