Many of the children have been very generous when it comes to donating for the Giving Tree and I have also had a lot of people asking what to do with second hand items. So while you are feeling in a giving and thankful mood this weekend perhaps take some time to clear out some of the things that have been hanging around in your closet unused for awhile. You may have noticed my unclutterer.com link down the side of my page, they have some great tips for being ruthless when it comes to a wardrobe make-over. When you are umming and ahhing over whether you really need that 4th jacket, remember the children and parents who don’t have the luxury or making that choice and give generously.

Coming up in December is a clothing drive to benefit Li Min school for migrant workers’ children.  We pass the school each day as we drive through the village.  Boxes will be set up at each of the main entrances from December 8-12.  The principal at Li Min says that many of their students are from the earthquake hit region and that adult clothing would also be useful and appreciated.  This is a great opportunity to clear out your closets!  Thanks for your support.
