While you are cleaning out your closets of all the things that don’t fit, please don’t just throw them out. We will be sending shorts, t-shirts and underwear to an orphanage in the Philippians. So when you are cleaning out your closet please remember that these kids could really use these SUMMER clothes. Please don’t go out and buy new things for these kids. A great place to look if you don’t have anything at home is at garage sales.
