DeClutter For Good Drive
 
 
October 2009
Kids' Clothing & Stuff
Hi ~ 
 
This is just a quick reminder that I need your help to help those in need during this month's DeClutter Your Kids' Stuff For Good Drive. (No kids? Forward this message to contacts with kids' clutter to clear!)
 
This month's goal is 200 items!
 
Together, we can collectively declutter our kids' stuff, and get it, free-of-charge, to those in need through Cradles to Crayons, an amazing organization that works with over 400 local service organizations serving families state-wide. Together, we can really make a difference by helping these mission-driven organizations and the people whom they serve who are working hard to overcome hardship, gain skills, find a stable job, improve their circumstances and provide for their families.
   
The homelessness and poverty statistics for children in Massachusetts are staggering. Visit Cradles to Crayons' website to learn about these sobering facts and the good work being done to help those children in need here in our state.

Get the Kids Involved!

I've made it a point to get this reminder out in time for the Columbus Day weekend with the thought that some families can get the kids involved, sorting through their own clothes and contributing to the effort. It's head-to-toe kids' clothing from birth to size 20 (kids come in all shapes and sizes!), with baby clothes and teen clothes being the most challenging need to fulfill.

Drop In and Drop Off!

Our DeClutter For Good Drop-Off Day is a great day to check out the pre-launch office of Time Well Spent and try your hand at a beginner eco-art project, if you like! So, drop in when you are dropping off:
 
         Next Saturday, October 17th, from 10am - 4pm
    Time Well Spent Pre-Launch Office, Route 1, Ipswich

If you can't make it on the 17th but have donations to share, reply to this email and we can come up with an alternative drop-off time.
   
Any questions, reply to this email or post on the weblog (if you are wondering about something, chances are you aren't the only one!). 
 
Many Thanks & Carpe Diem ~
