R.E.A.D.Y. Club Children's Clothing Drive for Ethiopian Children's Hospitals

Description:

The Bay View Community Center R.E.A.D.Y. Club is launching a 5 month (August 6 – December 14, 2012) Children's Clothing Drive: for children’s clothing, sizes newborn to boys size 20 and girls size 16. We are accepting clean, gently used or new clothing. We will have open drop-off opportunities at the Center and at specific neighborhood events through out the 5 months. The majority of the clothing will go to Ethiopian Children’s hospitals and will be delivered by the UW Madison Children’s Hospital Medical Mission team in October and January. If this drive is so successful that we cannot send everything over to Ethiopia then the remaining donations will be split between the Milwaukee Rescue Mission and Bay View Kids Closet. Collection Event: Sept .15 at Bay View Bash in Children’s Area (Immaculate Conception Parking Lot on Kinnickinnic Avenue) at the Bay View Community Center Table, 11:00 am-6:00 pm Ongoing Collection at BVCCenter Monday-Thursday, 9:00 am- 8:30 pm, Friday, 9:00 am-5:30 pm and Saturdays, 9:30-11:30 am.
