Grace Urban Ministries

Grace Urban Ministries is a Non-profit agency that provides support to woman and children going through a transitional stage of their life.
The RRLC Library Assistants Group collects personal items for this organization twice a year.
I will keep a box at my desk for donations from PLS member libraries and when it's full - I'll make sure it gets to the RRLC coordinator. G.U.M. love the samples that hotels hand out.

Some examples of items needed are:
Shampoo
Conditioner
Soap
Toothpaste
Toothbrush
Make up
Clean (new) socks
Clean (new) underwear (all sizes)

If you have any questions, please let me know.
