Tomorrow I will be going to Costco to purchase $600 worth of goods to be distributed by CORE this Sunday for those who have lost homes in the LA Fires. They specifically requested items that are hard to get closer to the affected areas:
- Phone Cables & Chargers
- Flashlights & Batteries
- Feminine Products (Pads/Tampons)
While I am not a 503(c) charity and I can’t offer you a tax break, I am accepting donations from people who know me personally, like many of you reading this blog post. I will pool any money you can offer and use it to buy more of these urgently needed items for fire victims.
Right now, I just need a pledge, we can work out the money transfer later tonight or tomorrow or this weekend. Right now I am rushing out the door to volunteer with Habitat for Humanity on one of their projects. Feel free to reply to this email, comment on this blog post or email me at peterwestcarey@gmail.com.
If you trusts me, I will be happy send a follow up post to document what was purchased and where it is going.
Thank you,
pwc
