Dear Linda,
Thank you to everyone for the blankets you have committed to send to Connecticut . Thank you also to those who offered blankets after we reached our goal. I will let you know if we need more.

We are simply overwhelmed by your response. I sent out the initial request for 700 blankets at 10:04 CST and we filled the need by 11:00pm CST. That's less than an hour.

What an amazing and most generous group of coordinators we have!

Thank you so much!
Mary

My thoughts, prayers and love goes out to all affected.

God Bless all the wonderful people there are in this world.
