Pumpkins for Pajama's Drive

I used to be the Humanitarian Specialist in the ward and got released two weeks ago, but had already started a new project. Since honestly the ward turned out a pretty sad number on the school kits, the Ward Missionaries are jumping on board to help out with this one. It should be lots of fun to interact with the community and also be a great missionary opportunity. If you can help out we would sure appreciate it. Here is a little more info on the program.

Pumpkins for Pajama’s Drive

The "Danger Season" is now among us. This is the block of six cold and lonely months between October 1 and March 31 in which it is especially dangerous for a child to be without warm clothing at bedtime.

The children we serve through The Pajama Program have been abused and abandoned. They are frightened at night and uncertain about what tomorrow will bring. Add to this, cold nights and sparse clothing - it makes me shiver, inside and out. In the West Valley alone there is a need of 3200 pajama’s a month.

The Pumpkins for Pajama’s Drive will be on October 31^st. From 8:00am – 2:00pm.

There will be two drop off locations: Mountain Side Fitness (27^th Ave & Carefree Hwy in Tramonto) and the LDS church meeting house (35^th Ave & Happy Valley Rd).

Will you help us provide a warm, cozy pair of new pajamas to these children?
