give Thanks, give Hope

Hi friends and family!                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                I have recently become involved with a non-profit, www.solehope.com, based in Asheville, NC that "offers hope, healthier lives, and freedom from foot-related diseases through education, jobs, and medical relief." I was wondering? Have you or one of your family ever had a parasite of any kind? Well, to get personal, we have.                                                                                                                                                             In the past couple of years, the kids have had head lice, and we've had fleas invade our home. On that note, I can't imagine the hopelessness of not having access to a drugstore to buy the essential products to get rid of these nasty pests!                                                                                                                                                                                                              This Thanksgiving season SH is having a medical supply drive to help give the HOPE of healing to those suffering with jiggers(a type of flea in Africa that can cause someone to go lame if untreated).                            I am asking for donations of large safety pins, gauze wrap, and stickers for kids. You can simply order them from amazon or gather them, and package them and have them shipped directly to SOLE HOPE at this address:   PO Box 1492, Asheville, NC  28802                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              Thank you all for helping me give Thanks and give Hope!! Love, Emily
