This is the family that lost all of their worldly possessions on Monday when their apartment caught fire. We would like to collect as many household goods as possible for this family. Think of the items you use in your home daily and lets start there...
1. Sheets and towels
2. Dishes, utensils, cups and food staples
3. Clothing
4. Clock
5. Bathroom supplies (shampoo, soap, tp)
6. Papergoods
This list is by no means exhaustive- just hoping to give you some ideas. Items can be brought to First Presbyterian Church Champaign at 302 W. Church St or email generosityincu@gmail.com and we can schedule a time to pick them up from you.

Housing Found and Housing Lost
Good news to report that the woman and her son in need of housing were able to secure a place to call home.
Some of you may have read on the front page of the News Gazette today about the fire that left a couple with nothing but the clothes on their back. Stay tuned for details on their needs both immediate and long term.

There is a woman and her 9 yo son in need of a 1-2 bedroom place. They have an incredibly well behaved dog and are needing to live in the boundaries of Unit 4 schools. She has a budget of $600/month for housing. She is employed at Christie hospital and saving money for a place of her own. Until then if you are able to provide temporary housing please send an email to generosityincu@gmail.com

Shiny Happy People?
I've had too many conversations in the last 48 hours to believe that we are simply a bunch of shiny happy people. People out there are hurting and hurting bad....in need of their brothers and sisters support. Now here's the rub folks. If you don't share your needs there is nothing your community can do.
If you know of someone in need please email generosityincu@gmail.com

Looking for a boot
"I'm looking for a Bledsoe Boot to borrow, used is great! If you've ever worn a boot you probably know what I'm talking about. It has a rocker bottom to make walking smoother on the rest of your body."
If you happen to have access to one of these boots please email: generosityincu@gmail.com
