Its that time of the month again...OPHUMANANGELS
So Like we did earlier this month, in helping out community, we are doing it again. So on Facebook, which I still check every once in a while, I found a local charity that is asking for help in helping the homeless just up the river. So I am cashing out 50 Steem today, for this and anything you can give will go a LONG way. The charity is Heart to Heart Charity in ClearLake, WA. The list that they need help with is long, so I will throw it all in one paragraph, so that the thread is not 3 miles long. What they are doing is making back pack travel cases for the needy.
Below is a list of items we put into our Homeless Backpacks and our Shower Kits. The Homeless Backpacks vary depending on the supplies we have so any food that is non perishable, easy to eat is wonderful such as tuna packs, top ramen, pop-top cans of ravioli etc.
BACKPACK BASICS
backpacks, duffle bags, totes to pack items in. still in good shape,
blanket or heavy sheet (these can be new or used. If used, please be sure they are clean and no stains or rips),

Now I just saw this this morning, so for me it is short notice. But its all good. I have been stacking steem, with the hopes that I would be able to do some good, from a good site, good people and great friends. So tonight after work, I am going to gather as much as I can, and tomorrow @khackett and I are going to deliver. Rain or snow, we will be there.

Good job! Thanks to @phoenixwren you have planted 0.13 tree to save Abongphen Highland Forest in Cameroon. Help me to plant 1,000,000 trees and share my Steem Power to the others. Selfvoting is prohibited, but that should be the reason to spread the world to protect our precious environment. Check out profile of our conservation association @kedjom-keku and the founder/coordinator @martin.mikes to get more information about our conservation program. My current SP is 14514.78. Help me to plant more trees with your delegated SP.
Thanks a lot,
your @treeplanter
