Nicole and I started a project together. We chose to donate clothes to the Children's Inn in Sioux Falls. In the process of setting this up, we made flyers to hang around the High School and the community of Baltic. We also found facts that dealt with a few things the Children's Inn takes care of. For example: battered women, families in loss of a home, children with disabilities, etc. We also made a goal of 150 items to be brought to the High School office by Friday, February 10, 2012. We hung up the flyers today and our project is under way! Please help if you can! Thanks!
