URGENT NEED!!  

Desperate for Diapers/Wanting for “Womanly” Items/So Needing Soap! !

 Metro CareRing needs contributions of the following:

  • diapers,
  • feminine hygiene products (tampons, sanitary napkins),
  • toilet paper
  • bar soap

 These are items that Metro CareRing can’t afford to purchase now, but will count on YOU (individuals, faith communities, schools and work places) to deliver!  Thanks for ensuring that promotion of this occurs!  Tell your boss, your employees, your friends, pastor, physicians, etc. please.  Do “drives” for these items so that (for instance) diapers arrive (pick a month to collect), tampons on Tuesdays and/or feminine items (tampons/sanitary napkins) on Fridays, soap on Sundays, etc.   Have t.p. meetings/parties where everyone brings an 8-pack of toilet paper for Metro CareRing!   

Be as creative as you can and help MCR keep offering these very needed items!  Thank You!
