This holiday season I finally made a decision to do something that I've always wanted to do; HELP children in need. I had heard about this place called Casa de Amparo 3 years ago thru our church ( New Song ) and always wanted to donate or volunteer my time, but unfortunately life got so busy. This time, I made a promise, especially after speaking to the director of Casa de Amparo and got more information about their mission. It touched my heart and I knew I could help a little bit with the help of my friends. I ask Oceanside Team Quest to help me out, and with help of Pamela and Bryan Harper, the owners ( AMAZING PEOPLE ) of Team Quest, things finally came to life. We have drop box at the front door of the Team Quest Oceanside Facility at:
318 Horne St, Oceanside, CA 92054 you can contact me at 619-227-7522
Donations needed: new toys, new clothes, and school supplies. For clothes: sizes 18 months to 6 years for both boys and girls. PLEASE ,No used or open items!
DROP OFF DEADLINE - DEC 15, 2011
Thank you all so much!
