The February meeting will be held at Stacey's house. She will serve spaghetti and meatballs with French bread. Members may bring a salad, a vegetable, or a dessert. Feel free to bring a guest who might be good prospect for our group. Just let Stacey know, so she will know how much food to prepare.
We will be assembling items for women's shelters one of which serves women in the Greater Baton Rouge area (our chapter project) and the other which serves women in the Houma area (state project). These shelters serve women who have suffered domestic abuse and/or sexual assault. Here is a list of items they need, so you can choose what you'd like to donate.
For the local shelter: toothbrushes, toothpaste, shampoo, conditioner, deodorant, other basics, small combs, and new towels. These can be travel size or full size.
For the Houma area shelter: TRAVEL SIZES - shampoo, conditioner, toothpaste, toothbrushes, mouth wash, dental floss, hand sanitizer, wipes or Wet Ones, hand cream, body lotion, Kleenex, chapstick, bar soap, razors, shaving cream, and first aid kits. They also need these new items for women and children: packaged underwear, small sized mints, night gowns, bras, pens, and notepads.
