    Updated with pictures in post 5. Totals below updated, too.

    Thanks to everyone who brought items for to our coupon swap last night. I added in the items I have been collecting and these are the 193 items that will be delivered on behalf our group!!!

    12 toothpaste
    12 toothbrushes
    10 dental floss
    25 body wash
    17 deodorant
    18 bars of soap
    10 facial scrubs
    13 cans of shaving cream
    36 women's razors
    13 hair dye
    1 mouth wash
    4 bottles of moisturizing creams
    5 pkgs feminine hygiene products
    12 tubes lipstick
    3 nail polish
    8 shampoo

    Hope I didn't miss anything on my list. (Now I just need to take a picture and figure out how to upload it). If anyone would like to bring items next time, we can start a new 'transition house stockpile'!

    Update: I added 8 shampoo and 3 fem. hygiene items for a total of 193 items.

    I met a worker from Evergreen House this morning outside LD at Guildford Mall to drop off the items and her reaction was "Wow!!!". They have no budget for personal care items so they are completely reliant on donations for these items and usually receive sample sizes. So, receiving donations like ours is awesome for them.

    There are up to 120 women per year who go through Evergreen transition house. They can stay up to 30 days while they are escaping an abusive situation. I was asked to pass on the message that our donations will really make a difference.

    I will continue collecting whatever people would like to bring to coupon swaps and I will drop off to Evergreen. I will also update totals in the first post so that by the end of the year we can see how much of a difference we have made!!! Here is a picture of our first donation.
