Wheeler Mission
What: tote bags, pillowcases, bookmarks
When: Fall
How many**: there are 80 women and 20 children
Tote Bags: as many as we can, up to 80, if possible
Pillowcases: as many as we can, up to 80 women and 20 children
Bookmarks: as many as we can, up to 80, if possible; this was new in 2014, and the women absolutely loved them!
**Please note that even though there is a large number requested, that if we don’t meet that number, it’s OK. They will distribute as many as we are able to do!
Details:
Tote bags: medium to heavy fabric, with straps and velcro closure, sizes: 13″ x 15″ to 15″ x 18″ (sizes are at the request of Wheeler)
Pillowcases: cotton is best, tasteful non-holiday fabric, pre-washed in warm water, and dried before cutting out
