Paige Week #18!

I'm a little behind on Paige's posting! (sorry dewey) Here's week #18! We had called 2 hotels to see if they could donate soap and shampoo and received calls from both of them. So we were also able to pick up a large donation from the Holiday Inn. How amazing is that! Paige was excited because the last time had been so great. So....we drove over to the Holiday Inn and Paige spoke to women at the counter and told them that she was there to pick up a package in her name. They asked her if we were going away for an extended trip! Paige then explained about the donation and they wished her the best. She proudly walked out of the hotel with a very large bag full of supplies. Awesome.

Our good friend Laurel told us about the Hamilton Urban Core Community Health Centre. They take donations of hotel size soaps, shampoo, etc to give out to the homeless and use at shelters. They work with individuals and families and assist in addressing issues that affect their health. They offer educational programs at schools as well to promote health and well being. if you want to find out more or want to donate as well their contact # is 905-522-3233.


Paige walked in and spoke to the woman (Jennifer) at the front desk. She explained that she wanted to donate and propped the large bag up on the counter. A few other women behind the desk area gathered around and listened in to what Paige had to say. She explained to the ladies what she does each week and they were so amazing with her. Jennifer came into the reception area and took a picture with Paige. She thanked her very much for taking the time to think of others.


It's amazing to watch Paige grow up. Each day she learns so much. Remember your children learn by example. Live your life the way you want them to live theirs. They watch every move you make! Live it Phat!
