CLOTHING DRIVE FOR OKLAHOMA...

Good evening friends. We have had an incredible day at the shop today. One of our fellow prim dealers, Marie Faren, from Nova, Ohio has started a clothing drive to send to Oklahoma. It touched my heart so much that we decided to try a one day drive at the shop today. I was totally blown away at the response we have had! People were dropping off 4-6 bags of clothing all day long. It went so well that we have decided to extend it through tomorrow. If you live anywhere near Holly, MI, please donate any clean, summer clothes to Holly Hills Primitives no later than 3 p.m. tomorrow (Thursday). Friday morning I will be meeting Marie in Maumee, Ohio to give her a truck load. She will be taking them to Seville Antique Mall to a huge trailer and another couple will be delivering them to Oklahoma. The truck and trailer leave Friday afternoon. Some things people don't think about is underwear. These should be new items if anyone wants to contribute. Also flip-flops would be another great contribution. Remember, these people have lost everything. Some people say "it takes a village", but in this case "it takes a country". We even had a stack of new Bibles delivered today. Thank you from the bottom of my heart to our friends that have contributed and to Marie Faren for starting this worthwhile cause. Hope to see you tomorrow! Until next time...
