Hey guys,
At church last Sunday I adopted a child that has nothing as far as clothing goes and I am trying to get together some donations for him. This being a t-shirt community i figured that this would be a good place to start. I know that I will probably get blasted for this, but this kid needs help and I am reaching out to you guys to help me help him. This is his information if you guys are willing. Everything has to be turned in by the 24th of August. Thanks in advance, I appreciate anything you can spare.
Initials: CH
Sex: Male
Age: 11
Pants: Boys 14 Slim
Shirts: Small
Shoes: 8 Narrow
Socks: Ankle
If you are willing to donate, please email me and i will give you the shipping address.
Thanks so much for reading this.
Leslie Ferrer
*EDIT*
The shipping address is:
Compassion in Action Attn:Leslie Ferrer
221 Eisenhower Dr Unit 55

If you are going to send stuff, please post up in here, I would like to acknowledge everyone when this is done.
Thanks for the sticky jimmy.

I AM TURNING THIS ALL IN ON THE 24TH. IF YOU ARE SENDING ANYTHING I NEED IT BY SATURDAY AT THE LATEST.

What company did you go through in adopting this kid? I have a couple kids we help through Compassion International. Theres also a cool company (I forget the name) where you can buy a goat for a village, or something along those lines. It helps them learn free trade.

You know, that is cool. Not many churches would be willing to help kids in their area.
milkmedia said 3 months ago
I hated church for a long time because of the people. This church is genuinely good. Im glad you guys are willing to help.

when it says BY the 24th of august, does that mean everything has to be there by that date or last date to post stuff out?

Jon Kruse said 3 months ago
Are there any other kids that need shirts? I just feel like this kid is going to have so many shirts he wont know what to do with them.
milkmedia said 3 months ago
There are actually 35 kids, same age range so the size is about the same. I only sponsored 1 but it would be awesome to be able to provide for more. I just didnt want to ask for too much from the community.
