Hey guys, hope all is well. We are now gathering hygiene products to give to the homeless, for the holidays. We will distribute them on December 20th. Your donation puts much needed hygiene products in the hands of those that desperately need them. With these items, a homeless person could be more presentable, and more accepted for job interviews, restaurants and even in the community. So Brothers please, lets help out. If you want to sponsor a backpack personally or you want to donate toiletries, every little bit helps. We want to at least provide 20 backpacks, for the homeless in our community. We have so much, lets not forget to give back!! For pickup, please give me a call at 919-561-6492. Thanks, Rich.
