Christmas 2000 Toy & Clothing Drive
Thank You All!!

Home Store
This years Drive was even more successful than last year 50% more was accumulated through Your Generosity!
6 skids of Clothing, 2 of Toys most New! 1.5 of Food, 1 of Bedding, a Wood Stove, and a Stove for Cooking, plus money that was used to buy more Toys, and even Gas Certificates. All this is on it's way thanks to the Generosity of Conway/CCX Trucking which again this year donated the delivery to Rosebud. God bless you all!
Understand that All donations, including money go directly to the people. All would be expenses have been donated, nobody gets paid for any service with this.
Jeff sends accumulated items through out the year about 2 times a month, by US Postal. (no they don't donate any of the mailing..) So any items that didn't make the drive for Christmas still make it there.
We'd like to start Christmas 2005 now. At least think about it, we'd like to see an entire trailer load make it out, and be able to share it with more folks out there. We the people can, and do make a difference. What do the folks involved get out of it? The grace and satisfaction knowing that some beautiful Children have a Gift that wouldn't otherwise be possible. You're saying Yes I do care, Merry Christmas!
After all isn't this the true meaning of Christmas?
May the Blessings of the Divine be with you and yours always.

Last year Jeff Madewell from Dayton, Ohio managed to get a Toy drive that also included a couple of pallets of Brand New Blankets together, and even got a Trucking Company involved, CCX/Conway Trucking donated the delivery! They delivered 7 pallets to Rosebud 4 days before Christmas you should have seen the faces
This year Jeff is at it again, CCX/Conway Trucking has stepped forward again to donate the delivery of all goods gathered.
We are asking You to get together with friends and family, hey ask your company! To help make this Drive even more successful. We are asking for new Toys, and Blankets, Food items (canned meats, vegetables, Coffee, you get the idea) Send them to Jeff who is coordinating this and these gifts from your heart will make a difference!
This man set aside 1 day a week and gave his services away all he required was canned food, or coffee as payment for the day, and every month he sent these things and other collected items off to the reservation.
For those with the means, anything can be donated provided it's in good condition, please don't send Junk that should be hauled to the dump. That doesn't speak well of those sending help!
Anybody that might know of a company that would like to donate computers please speak up!
We would love to see that a second truck is needed to deliver your gifts. Show about it? Up for a challenge, make a difference in lives? Really reach out and touch someone, several some ones!
Come on let's make a whole lot of Kids cry with joy.
God Bless
