Clothes Needed for the Nurses Station:
The number one need is for new or genlty used underpants for both boys and girls, sizes 4/5 up to 7/8.
They could also use some elastic waist sweatpants or leggings, sizes 4/5 up to 7/8.
Socks would also be helpful, sizes from kids 10/11 to 4/5.
Again, if you are able to donate these items there will be boxes in both the main office and west wing office marked for 'Nurses Station Clothing Needs', or feel freet o take them directly to the nurses station located by the main office.
Thank you so much for your help!
