I finally made it to the Tri-County Help Center to donate PJ,s from the PJ sale.
My friend Margie, from, Bless Your Heart Folk Art, also participated in the event this year and collected PJ,s and other items for the center. She has a really nice store just up the street.
That's her, in her shop, with her basket of items to donate ,stop in and see her next time you are in town. When I was at the center I discovered how many really good services they have to offer.
The center specializes in mental health and anti-violence services. They provide a 24/7 crisis hotline, as well as 24 hour emergency shelter. The shelter provides services in Belmont, Monroe and Harrison Counties.
Last year they were able to help approximately 50 women and they are currently in need of curtains, (44Lx36W). If you have any gently used ones, or are willing to make some for them it would be greatly appreciated. They also are in need of hygiene items, household cleaning items, furniture, pots and pans, cooking utensils and silverware, and just about anything a person needs to set up housekeeping.

The shelter can house the women and children for up to thirty days. They then help them find housing to begin their lives over. Most of the women are not able to return to their homes to collect their possessions. For more information or to donate, contact me at the shop, or call the center at, at 740-695-1639. they also have a web-site, www.tricountyhelp.org.

This is an excellent way to help women and children, right in our own community.
