I began a drive in February to collect used clothes, toys, toiletries etc. to send to Liberia. A friend of mine is from there and the people have very little because of two civil wars and no economy. Even the capital of their country has no running water or electricity!
Our Relief Society joined in and last month I was able to to sacks and sacks of things to my friend who will send them on to hospitals and orphanages there.
I am thankful that as I was pondering and praying about what to do as a service in honor of Jennifer this year - this opportunity came about. There are so many needs around us. Sometimes it just takes asking a few questions to be able to share a little bit with others.
Just imagine, Jennifer is still an inspiration for good in the world and she will always be an inspiration to me!
