What have you donated this month ?

Remember i told you about how i would start blogging about choosing a pantry every month and filling my box w/ goods for them ?

Well, i have been doing that and have already had to make a visit to the pantry because my box was full.

The pantry i chose for this month was :

The Siena/Francis House

www.sienafrancis.org

I had such an eye opening experience when i went there. You can drive up and down the road there and just see the tons of people who have no home.

There were vans, vehicles and people all lined up and down the street. I felt so sad for those people. No place at night to lay there head and feel safe. No place to call home.

Even though it may not seem like a lot that i have donated, i can at least feel better knowing that maybe i have helped at least one person.

I have started another box. When it is full i will take it in.

Items i donated in the box.....

1 large box of Cheerios
1 box of Corn flakes
2 boxes of Glucerna cereal
2 blood glucose meters
1 bottle of Motts apple juice
10 bottles of Kraft bbq sauce
1 bottle of Tabasco sauce
5 Hormel Compleats
3 pks of Marcal Small steps

I started w/ items from my pantry and then i just added some things along the way that i found cheap/free.
I paid no more than $3.54 for all of these items. ( not counting toward my budget because i have already paid previously through the budget)
