Sleeping Bags for the Homeless
Avalon have received 40 sleeping bags from the National Homeless Collective to distribute to the homeless.
“Here is the photo we took of the sleeping bags. I will send it to Donna and hopefully we can go and pay her a visit, either next week or the week after.
Thank you SO much for organising all of this! It is fantastic and I am looking forward to going out to the homeless and being able to provide them with sleeping bags for a change. “ Debbie
Plus there are another 400 bags in transit (from China !!) … of which Avalon will get a share. So a great win-win and no money required…. yet !!
