Shoebox Project for Women
Monday, October 16, 2017 at 8:40PM I am the Coordinator for the Shoebox Project for Women in Shelters for Nanaimo and area. www.shoeboxproject.com/Nanaimo
We would love to include the community of Thetis Island in this years drive. We support Haven Society, Samaritans House and Nanaimo Women’s Resource Center. We are looking for $50.00 (brand new items) wrapped in lovely Christmas shoeboxes (detachable lids) to donate. We ask that they are items that make a women feel special. Pretty Scarves, Winter Mitts, Gift Cards, Body Lotion, Jewelry, Lipstick, Lip Balm, NO Candles or items that can harm. There is a lot of distress for women who end up in a shelter and this helps to eliminate any anxiety, stress or shame they may be feeling. They really feel the love from community and helps to lessen those feelings. You can reach me Trish Scoular at nanaimo@shoeboxproject.com
or Alana DeLong (my assistant).
I love Thetis Island it’s my home away from home, to unwind and relax in.
