Paige wants to give a BIG thanks to Cindy at the Hilton Garden Hotel for the amazing donation she arranged. A good friend of our Laurel (she is a wicked Phat Chick that runs freak'in fast!) told us about donating hotel size soaps, shampoo, conditioner for the homeless in our surrounding cities. Paige and I discussed it and thought why not give a local hotel a call and see if they have some items to donate. Our first and only call we made we were connected with Cindy's voice mail. We left a message and explained what we were looking for and within a few minutes Cindy got back to us. We didn't even have a chance to call another hotel! Cindy was awesome and after she had said they would put together a donation she asked if we could also deliver some sheets, blankets and pillows to help people needing a fresh start. Could we! So we set a time for pick up and contacted a few people to make arrangements for drop off! So great.First stop was the Halton's Women's Shelter and then on to the Downtown Hamilton Mission. The response was overwhelming and Paige was beaming as she helped carry in the supplies to each location. In her words...I like helping out and the way people are happy when we come. I wish everyone was able to have a warm cozy bed to sleep in and maybe these blankets and pillows will help. Awesome.
It was a great day and we are so thankful for the amazing people we met today.
