Dear Community Members,
High Point residents, Fadumo and Anab, are working to collect clothing and shoes to send to Africa at the end of the month. They, along with a small group from the community have put their money together to send 120 bags that can weigh up to 50 pounds each.
Fadumo traveled to Kenya last summer and saw children running around without shoes and clothes on. She bought a child a pair of shoes when she was there and he cried he was so happy. She promised next time she came back she would bring shoes and clothes with her.
We've already helped to fill her van with clothing once, but there is a lot more room. If you have any new or used children's or adult clothing or shoes that you'd like to send please drop your donation off at the Family Resource Center. We will help make sure Fadumo and Anab get your donation to Kenya.
If you have any questions please do not hesitate to reach out. I can help connect you with Fadumo as well.
