[Neighbors] Unhoused Care Kits Assembly updates

[Dawn Rosignol]

Frances, thank you for your email & for your contributions to this important endeavor. I think the sunscreen was removed for the winter but can't remember for sure. However, with the warmer sunnier days upon us, it's good to add it back. Thanks for your reminder. I added sunscreen to the online signup page. We are completely out so I listed 100 needed. Your donations will be of great help!


As for an article in the Nob Hill newsletter, there already is one in the newsletter that goes out in a few weeks that Meta & I submitted at Gary's request. I also listed it as part of our church ad. Great collaborative work, friends!


Blessings,

Rev. Dawn

Hi Dawn, 
I don’t see sunscreen on the list, but I will donate 72 packets.  I’ll be out of town in April, where should I bring them?



Also, I know Nob Hill News is ready to go out, but maybe we could put a short article in the next one?  It would be great to get more donations, especially with additional groups you recommended. 



Thanks for spearheading this very worthwhile project!



Frances

Dear all,



We were few but mighty for our March 18th Unhoused Care Kits assembly! The wind was brutally violent and the air quality was concerning so we're grateful for those who did participate and understand that many weren't able to. We were still able to fill about a hundred kits in less than 30 minutes! We didn't have dog food so we weren't able to fill bags for the dog companions for the unhoused. Next month! Though we didn't have ACS members with us, they did pick up the kits today. I kept about 20 to add razors & shaving creams before I deliver them to the Transgender Resource Center. 



We inventoried at the end and I've updated the online signup page. We need many items. You can see what's needed for the next assembly date (April 15th) and sign up for your donations https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1rHQucjgkC4Qf7IIHqCR6DjkHT6HTFOK05JzqOpAVYpo/edit?usp=sharing.



Finally, we had a presentation this week from Storehouse NM. They also assembly care kits for the unhoused. I showed them the care kits we assemble & asked if they could use some. They thought it was wonderful & said they'd welcome any that we could provide to them. So, I don't want to spread us too thin. Yet, I thought it would be a good idea to ask if we might consider setting a goal of doing 150 kits each month. Give ACS 100, TGRC 20. & Storehouse 30. Thoughts? You're all doing great work! You are appreciated & so are the kits!



Blessings,

Rev. Dawn
