<br>Dear FUUSM Members and Friends:<div><br></div><div>With cold weather fast approaching, a few of us recently discussed what FUUSM could <span>do for the needy in our community. </span><span>Shari Ballantyne suggested collecting warm clothing, an idea that had been discussed prior to COVID. </span></div><div><span></span></div><div><br></div><div>On Saturday, November 18, the Fellowship Hall is not booked for any other events, so we have asked Dawn to put this on the books. We’ll put up a sign on the fence a few days prior so that the word gets out. </div><div><span><br></span></div><div>The <span>Fellowship Hall will be open from 11 am to 3 pm on Thursday, November 16, and Friday, November 17, </span><span>for drop off of your gently worn items. </span><span>Anyone who wants to help sort and curate -</span><span>especially on </span><span>Friday - is VERY welcome. I’m sure we’ll have some snacks and the coffee pot will be on.  </span><span></span></div><div><br></div><div>We hope to collect clothing for all genders and ages, including shoes, socks, hats, scarves and gloves. It was also suggested that blankets, throws and backpacks would be appreciated and useful. </div><div><br></div><div>Shari and I will take responsibility for seeing that leftovers are donated where they might be most needed, and we’ll be open to suggestions. </div><div><br></div><div>Anyone who has donations but cannot drop them off during the specified time frames may call Shari or me to make other arrangements.  </div><div><br></div><div>We’ll be sending out reminders, but please make a note to participate in this worthy effort. As everyone knows, it takes a village to make these things successful. </div><div><br></div><div>Thank you!</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Shari Ballantyne   740 568 8200</div><div>Nancy Lee       740 630 6326</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br><div><a href="https://mail.onelink.me/107872968?pid=nativeplacement&c=Global_Acquisition_YMktg_315_Internal_EmailSignature&af_sub1=Acquisition&af_sub2=Global_YMktg&af_sub3=&af_sub4=100000604&af_sub5=EmailSignature__Static_" target="_blank">Sent from Yahoo Mail for iPhone</a><br></div></div>
