The Rose Project

There is a woman here in my town how started the Rose Project, she collects toiletries and winter wear for homeless people her locally and in the city. 

I loved the idea and was telling the kids about it and they thought it would be a great idea to help and make a donation!

This is what we came up with.....

We had enough for 10 full bags (including mitts, soap, Kleenex, gum, tooth paste, toothbrush, dental floss, hand wipes shampoo and hand sanitizer and for snacks the kids wanted to fruit snacks, chocolate covered granola bars, and cookies)
I also had some extra stuff to donate that. Had in the cupboard that wasn't being used here. 
The kids helped me stuff the bags after school and then we went and dropped off our donation. 
I love being able to teach my kids how lucky we are to have what we have, and that we should be thankful for all of it!
