We are now officially at the "Needs Met" stage - great job! Along with the items that you all donated, we also collected enough money to help pay the deposit and rent for their mobile home (I got a money order for record keeping and to make sure the money is going where we intend it to go) - electricity and water are being turned on today, and you are the ones who made it happen! The mother is also contacting Labor Finders today, and hopefully a job for her will be found with the help of our contact there. After speaking with the mother yesterday, she understands that the monetary help was a one time deal, and that now it is her responsibility to take the steps necessary to make sure the needs of her children are met. Great job on a project well done! You all stepped up to the plate, and got the job done. :)

PROJECT LM Needs:
- -
On a side note, I had several people ask about monetary donations. For this case, monetary donations will be accepted. They are in need of turning on their electricity and transferring their water, but cannot do so until their rent has been paid. We would need close to $650 to have everything done for them - so far we have $325 - exactly half. If we could even just get enough to have rent + electricity that would be better than nothing. If you cannot give, or prefer not to do cash, that is fine - please feel no pressure to ever give money. I would also like to say that any money given will be accounted for through receipts - I, along with anyone else who would like to go, will be taking them to pay the bills so the money will not just be gived to them on faith.
