**Note: When you RSVP for this event, you are committing to donate items to fill a tote bag for a 1–4-year-old child in need. Please read this entire description before RSVPing. Thanks so much.**

In honor of our dear group member Denise who recently passed away, let's donate items to Project Sleep Tight, an organization that distributes tote bags to "homeless, foster care and refugee children ... who need childhood essentials to feel cozy and significant."

In the comment section below, please indicate how many totes (1–5) you are willing to fill. Each tote **must** contain these four items and be appropriate for a 1–4-year-old child:

* one new fleece blanket (single layer, ideal size is 50" x 60")
* one new stuffed animal between 7–15 inches long
* one new children’s book (again, appropriate for a 1–4-year-old)
* one new toothbrush, individually wrapped

Project Sleep Tight is very particular about the items in its totes. Before purchasing your four items, please visit https://projectsleeptight.org/
then click "Learn More" under "Adopt a Project." Read the "PST Adopt a Project Guidelines" and "PST How to Pack a Tote" to make sure your items work for the organization.

Please get me your four items no later than **September 28**--the earlier the better. (If you sign up to fill three totes, for example, you would give me three sets of the four items listed above.)

You can either bring your donations to one of our meetups or meet me at the Southeast Regional Library (we can arrange a time/ place). I will pick up the actual PST totes (the ones featuring a cow) and pack them with your donated items. (If you'd like to help me fill these, let me know.) I've committed to get the filled totes to Project Sleep Tight by September 30.

Thanks, ladies, for your help. I'm glad we can honor Denise in this way and support a great cause.
