Republican Women Serve the Community

November 28th, 2006 by Halli

The Bonneville County Republican Women have a wonderful annual charity project. You’ll read the details below. If you live in Bonneville County, I hope you will participate. If you don’t, consider sponsoring a similar event in your community. Shouldn’t be hard finding businesses to cooperate. So get out your shopping list, and add a package of diapers! Below is the BCRW press release.

3^nd Annual “Diaper Drive” for the Haven Women’s Shelter

Once again, in place of our monthly luncheon, Bonneville County Republican Women will hold a “Diaper Drive” from Monday, December 11th to Friday, December 15th. We will be collecting diapers for The Haven, a local homeless shelter for single women and children. Last year we collected 8 months worth of diapers for the Haven. This year we want to provide enough diapers to last an entire year.

As a women’s political organization, we feel a great obligation to reach out to women and children in need. The Haven provides such a great service to families in our community, and much of their funding comes from donations. They provide infant supplies for many agencies in town and are always in need of diapers. They use approximately 50 packages a month.

Bonneville County Republican Women and members of our community are invited to purchase diapers and drop them off at one of the following locations on from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. (Large sizes are especially needed.)

   [...] It’s not difficult to find a place to give. Perhaps your church sponsors a “Secret Santa” program. Maybe your office group is conducting a food drive. You might have a neighbor who has hit hard times this year. If you live in the Idaho Falls area you may wish to participate in the Bonneville County Republican Women diaper drive. And have you ever taken the time to notice what it does to your heart when you give? Find out by dropping loose change in the Salvation Army kettle next time you pass one. [...]
