I'd love to be able to help out everyone who needs it, but financially I'm no better off than most of you here. Still, I consider myself blessed to have a home and healthy family and parents who can sometimes help out.

Trin, I see a lot of parents saying they weren't able to give their children much this holiday season, and I was wondering if we could maybe create a "co-op" of sorts to help these folks out?

I'm located in Texas but can ship out of state. I don't have money to buy new clothes and toys but have many avenues which would allow me to collect gently used items, plus my own, that can go to anyone in need.

If you're a parent of small children in need of clothing, or used toys, please post here and try to include an email address where you can be reached.

If you're a donor, maybe you can help a family in need.

I love what Trin started and Brief and FW followed... I do believe that although it's great to give anonymously, it's even better to inspire others to give.

MartianPrincess,

I'm not a member, so I can't reply to you in a PM. Would it be possible for you to post an email address in case we wish to contact you privately? I would be more than happy to send a donation to you. Will there be a post office box in the future?  Because I think checks and cash would pour in to a brick and mortar building. I think you are a wonderful and generous soul for doing this.

Bless you MP. Don't hesitzte to sting the trolls. I'm married to a Scorpio. ha ha. I know how they are.

Sincerely,

Meadow

Hi Meadow, you can contact me at makelittleoneshappy@gmail.com
About monetary donations, I wonder if I need to start a nonprofit to accept them? I can easily keep track and receipts and all that but I'm concerned about the legalities. Otherwise, I could setup a PO box with no problems.

Thanks for your offer! Oh, you bet I won't hesitate to use this stinger when need be; we Scorps get a bad rap but truth is while we are smartasses, we are mean only when provoked, just like the arachnid after which we are named. Most Scorpios I know personally are very kind, sensitive people and quick to stand up for others, something not typically associated with our sign.  :hf:
