Our own Back Yard!

In the past weeks we all have seen the news reports about the tornado's that ripped through the south land leaving many grieving the loss of loved ones as well as property. We sit here tonight reading headlines on MSN, Yahoo, CNN or other various sites and we might have forgotten about the ones that no longer have that luxury. At this point in time they no longer have the good things in life, things that we don't even think about. Many that read this know who Deanna Baker is, many may not.

Deanna is a grade school friend that currently lives in Alabama and she was one of the lucky ones that escaped the wrath of the tornado's, but she lives just miles some cases blocks from the destruction. She is helping and doing her part with trying to bring some back to her community.

So my question to myself and to you is can we give a loving hand in all of this. Weather it is a little or a lot, really it doesn't matter anything that you can do would help. Below is a list of items Deanna sent me that we can send down there to help.

Non-perishable food Canned food
can openers
baby items clothes and shoes (it's hot here so summer clothes)
paper products (plates, cups, paper towels)
Towels and rags
gargage bags
tarps 

personal hygiene
and I even read a local fire department is in need of sunscreen and chapstick cleaning supplies message me, email me, if you know Deanna contact her. Let's give to those that have nothing.
