Sister Aracelli Flores from the Spanish Branch, is going to go to visit her homeland in Peru in January 2011, and she has asked sisters in our ward who have any extra children clothing to consider to donate some of them for children in Peru. If you feel like you might have clothing to donate, here is more detail from Sister Flores:
I will be collecting clothes for both BOYS and GIRLS, ages 0 to 7. It will be a summertime in January, so summer clothes would work best. Shoes may be too heavy and take up too much space, but we will do our best to fit in what we can.
The place of collection will be by the kitchen at Church in a big box labeled "FOR CHILDREN IN PERU".
Sister Flores would like would like to start collecting starting this coming Sunday October 10th, right after General Conference.
Thank you so much for posting this Sister Campora! I just wanted to add that the reason why I am collecting size 0-7 is because I would be able to fit many more clothes in a suitcase, as oppose to collecting larger sizes and taking up much more space in the luggage.I would like to thank all of you in advance for making this possible!
