Volunteer Events: Baskets of Hope, June and August, 2008
Thank you to all the
2008 Trailblazer Luncheon attendees
who contributed toward Baskets of Hope, a collection
of toiletries and school supplies to benefit survivors of
domestic violence through Domestic Violence and Rape
Crisis Services of Saratoga County. Your generosity was
amazing! At right, DVRC Executive Director Maggie
Fronk (left) and Women’s Fund Steering and Volunteer
Committee member Ellie Alexander stand with all the
donations.
We collected all of the following new items:
- skin and body care products – including hotel and store sample sizes
- make-up
- razors
- toothpaste
- deodorant
- pens, pencils, crayons
- notebooks
- rulers
We also received donations of gift bags and cotton tote bags.
As a followup to the collection, Women’s Fund volunteers
helped create baskets from the supplies with project
organizer
The Chamber of Southern Saratoga County’s Women in Business Committee. Thank you to volunteers
Leslie Kesner, Amy Clinton, Susan Houpt and Megan
Allen for participating.
