Kristin from Couponing to Disney has organized a way to donate to those in need who have suffered from loss due to the tornadoes that have devastated the South recently. We know our readers have a knack for stockpiling free or cheap items and this is your chance to use those skills to help others. Here’s what Kristin had to say:
“Southerners are in dire need of some of the most basic necessities and I am working with my local church to start an online donation drive to help the victims of these storms. If you have any items that you would love to mail to us, we will gladly take them. Here are a few things that we are in need of:
toothpaste
toothbrushes
shampoo
conditioner
soap
deodorant
dishwashing soap
laundry detergent
hand sanitizer
clothing in all sizes
shoes in all sizes
blankets
small toys for displaced children
ziploc bags
bandaids and other first aid products
