New Alternatives youth browsing the donated clothes

September 24th, 2012

New Alternatives youth browsing the donated clothes.  In addition to clothes, we are looking for donations of crockpots – our stove is out of commission and we need crockpots so we can provide hot food for the youth. Update (1/8/2013): Thanks to your generosity, we’ve got so many crockpots that we keep blowing out the church’s electricity! Thank you so much to everyone who donated them!
