"Bunny Baskets" for the Less Fortunate

[_Jersey Girl]

Other stuff for teens, in no particular order and maybe someone else has already said this.

Wet wipes or facial wipes.
Chapstick....cherry! Make it cherry!
Bubbles (I'm not joking)
Water Bottles (doesn't have to be big ones, just a water bottle)
Dry shampoo
Some nice body lotion like I don't know, coconutty lotion. Even travel size. Shea butter. Suave or whatever.
Toothpaste?

Can you not ask Walmart to donate to the cause? Ask them and don't be shy about it.

I'm serious about asking another teenager who frequents your food program. That's you're best expert right there!

I just saw this thread so I am sorry for my late reply. Amazon! what a great idea, with Prime shipping it doesn't cost me for the shipping!

Steuss would you PM me with an address again please. I'll see if I can get something there this week.

Got the scrunchies, and cute dino bubbles, as well as a thing of socks!

I don't see many teenagers in line, but I'll talk to one of the people tonight that I know does a lot of stuff for the teen shelter -- hopefully they'll be able to get me some firsthand homeless teen intel.

Not a bad idea about the feminine hygiene items. My wife is going shopping today to pick up nail polish, and Bath & Body fun (lotion and hand sanitizer), so I’ll shoot her a text about the lady stuff. We’re going to hit up the swap meet this weekend, and look for inexpensive cologne for the boys. Might also do a razor, and cream (from what I remember, I started to transition away from solely peach fuzz on my face around 15 years old). Other than that, I think I’ll hold off on the boys until I can get me some of that precious inside intel. :)

Happy to hear they arrived!

Wife started putting together the baskets for the younger kiddos today. I just got this in a text:

"Holy smokes, these kids are going to be blown away! These baskets are more hooked up than what I used to get as a kid!"

If I haven't said it lately, I love you all, and your generous, kind hearts. You have helped to make Easter magical for a huge group of kids.

Asked her to send me a pic of what is currently going down... will hopefully have something to share in a bit.

A small sampling of what's done so far.

That just makes my heart so happy!

74 Baskets for children have been completed, and are being picked up today and tomorrow for delivery to a low income kindergarten class, and children in transitional/temporary housing.

13 Baskets for teenagers living in transitional/temporary housing will be delivered Tuesday.

10 Baskets for any children that haven't been cycled out of the shelter and into transitional/temporary housing will be delivered Tuesday or Wednesday.

That's 97 baskets that you helped make for children that otherwise may not have received anything at all.

97 Baskets!

That's a ton!

That's a ton!

It's like a springtime tornado went through my living room. There's only a small path to get from the door to the kitchen. It's amazing!
