Below is a copy of an email I received from Becky, our satellite leader for WW. The Novelties has an opportunity to step up and help out. Take a minute to read what she wrote and let me know if you're interested in participating.
As you may remember, we took an offering for relief efforts for Haiti right after the tragic earthquake. We also mentioned that we would be partnering with World Vision in that effort. Based upon the funds that we raised (around $5,000), we have chosen the mode of sending first aid and health kits. How it works is:
We let WV know how many kits we can create based upon the amount of $ raised and then they, WV, sends us the kit materials for us to assemble and box up. They then pick up the assembled kits and send them to Haiti via their base in Miami.
What we need is Satellite groups willing to serve WW via assembling these kits. We will put together close to 200 of them, which is very exciting!!!!
Though the date is somewhat flexible based upon who jumps on this opportunity, we are looking to box materials the week of March 8th, before the Len Sweet weekend. If we can get a couple of groups to pull out a few hours on a Monday (8th) or Tuesday (9th) evening, that would be great. I will supply snacks.
