Donation drive for Camp United We Stand: Sat Feb 21, 12-2pm

We’re planning our annual donation drive for Camp United We Stand on Saturday, Feb 21! This has been a great tradition for our neighborhood, and community members at the camp always appreciate our contributions. They have just moved out to a location in Woodinville, so in addition to their regular needs they can also use gas cards. Here are some suggestions:

Gas/gift cards
Laundry detergent
Personal hygiene items
Ground coffee, non-dairy creamer, sugar
Duct tape
Clothing: please make sure anything you bring is in good condition and usable
Cleaning supplies

We will be gathering donations from 12-2pm on the 21st at the Patty Pan Co-Op, 15550 27th Ave NE. If that time doesn’t work for you please contact Devra Gartenstein at quirkygourmet@gmail.com or the BNA at (206) 289-0185‬ to arrange a drop off. You can also donate cash via Paypal!  We’ll take any donations that come in this week for the camp. Donation link: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=BK28MXFHP5G3Y
