The Thanksgiving Pie & Clothing Drive was a success!
We did it! Thanks to YOU, our generous donors, the Thanksgiving Pie/Clothing Drive raised $9,162.50. We were able to donate 500 pies to the Upcounty Hub’s Thanksgiving Dinner distribution event, and 272 lbs of warm clothing to the Clothing Closet at Shepherd’s Table:
48 Kids tube socks
36 Mens t-shirts
24 mens sweatpants
36 mens briefs
36 mens hoodie jackets
36 womens hoodies
48 womens sweaters
72 womens undies
120 womens tube socks
36 hat/glove/blanket sets
24 sweatshirt tracksuit sets
...and there was still money left over. Funds raised in excess of our goal are being used towards the Hams, Pies & Toys Holiday Drive.
Join us in bringing the joy of the holidays to those in need. Our goal is to provide 500 holiday hams, plus sweet potatoes and pies to the Upcounty Hub. In addition, we are collecting toys for WUMCO, the Upcounty Hub, the First Baptist Church of Silver Spring, and the Immigrant & Refugee Outreach Center.
You can bring toy donations to KPC’s front porch. The last date for toy collection is Friday, Dec. 15th.
May everyone know the joy of GIVING this holiday season!
*Editor's note: We previously stated that the warm clothing sets were being distributed through IROC, when it was actually Shepherd's Table. We apologize for the error.
