Girlfriends Give Back Work Session

Unbelievable. I just have to say - the power of women is unbelievable. This night was a HUGE success - Clayton Valley Girlfriends Unlimited Girlfriends should be very proud. We will have helped 152 people this winter season. You all came through the doors bearing shoe boxes, wrapping paper, ribbons, snacks, fleece, sewing machines, willing hands, lots of love and were ready to get to work.



In 3 hours, 18 women, we managed to power through 22 soup kits, 15 lap blankets, and 115 scarves. These items have been given to the Guttenberg Care Center, St. Mary's School, United Methodist, St. Johns, St. Pauls, Living Waters, Trinity Lutheran, the Ronald McDonald House, and various agencies/individuals through the Family Resource Center.

We all pulled together and worked hard. Way to Go!
I have already had a few folks that were on the receiving end come up and thank GU for their soup kit, etc. So very nice. It couldn't have been done without you all! From the bottom of my heart - thanks again!
