Women's Club Warm Clothing Drive
The Victoria Gardens Women's Club is once again sponsoring a warm clothing drive to assist the homeless and needy served by "Mercy Hour" at First United Methodist Church here in  DeLand.   We see between 70 and 90 people each Tuesday afternoon, many of whom are homeless; others have very little, and the cold weather months are always difficult for them. 

Between September 16 and November 1, a box will be located in the Craft Room for your donations.    Items needed for both men and women are:   Jackets, Sweat Shirts, Sweat Pants, Cardigan Sweaters, Gloves, Hats, Shoes/Boots, and Socks.

Your help will be greatly appreciated, and we thank you for your thoughtfulness!   

 Blessings,  Ellie Freund
