Blood Donations and Back Packs

Posted on September 16, 2011

Several of the church’s blood donors generously donated credits from the Commit for Life Store so that backpacks could be ordered and sent to CUPS.  Recently Louise Flippin sent the following letter of thanks to Mike Wright.

Dear Mike –

This is a quick note to thank you for the back packs.  They are really great and I sent most of them off last Friday with a wonderful teacher for her students (50 with 2 teachers) who do not have back packs.  If Macarena does not need all of them, she will send them to another nearby school.  Both of these schools are out in the country side and pretty far from retail locations.  Many of the mothers do not often make it into town for needed shopping.  In fact, we have some clothes that I plan to take to both of these schools in a couple of weeks for children in families who need clothing.  On the 22 of this month we will begin to distribute school supplies starting with small rural schools like the two I mentioned earlier.

Your donation to CUPS was a blessing as is your hard work with the blood bank.

Gracias for your help.
