It's a fair question.

There is a tendency in this community of ours to talk a great deal about what is wrong and how we might go about fixing it. What there is not a great deal of, however, is actually going about fixing it. Today, I ask you to change that. Stand up and do something. It doesn't have to be much. Make a small donation- a tube of toothpaste, a bottle of shampoo, an hour of your time, share one of our posts on Facebook. Our children are our most valuable assets. Without them, without what they have to offer, our world will cease to exist. Please, please take a stand and invest in them. Everyday, I see posts about 'this life' or 'that life' matters. You know what? THESE LIVES, our children, our lost, broken, forgotten children, their lives matter and they need us. What will YOU do today?

What socioeconomic conditions are endured by the young people we are striving to help? Check out this data published by the Appalachian Regional Commission:

One of the first things needed, if anyone wants to help, is CANDY! I need something to start breaking through to and making friends with these kids and candy is always a good way! Message if you can help!

We will be collecting: soap, deodorant, cologne/perfume, clothing & shoes (nice and appropriate for young people, please!), non-perishable food, can openers, winter coats, school supplies, backpacks (for school and food), and coupons. We will also be looking into any programs to get cell phones for these kids to communicate with us as well as for emergencies, as many as in unstable, and often unsafe, homes. If you have any ideas about this, please message us. We will also be looking into establishing a scholarship fund for college.

If anyone has COUPONS, we are collecting them. Also, Dottie Nelson has offered to help clip coupons to collect items to distribute to the kids. If anyone is willing to help her clip coupons, please message us and we will let you know when we will be getting together.
