My name is Tim Dimmick, I live in Sellersville, PA. Myself and my family are making another trip to NC. We made a trip there with help from others to assist the people of Burnsville with 3 trailers full of supplies, including water, food, clothing, baby diapers and formula, personal hygiene items, and even a few generators. Now we are doing it again for Christmas. There are currently 1100+ kids without a home in just one county, a number of families that are living in campers, with or without their whole family because they can't all fit in the camper. I was told that Gold's Gym is holding over 80 homeless people full time.
While many people have already forgotten about the devastation these families face each day, we are looking to bring a little joy to their holidays this Christmas season. We are collecting toys & personal items for the children from ages 1-18. We are asking for donations to purchase gifts and gift cards over the next couple of weeks. We will be providing the gifts unwrapped so that the parents can pick things they think their children would enjoy. We will also be providing the wrapping paper for the toys. In addition, we will be offering gift cards to the parents who are in need of money. These cards will be from national chain stores that are nearby to the area and can be used for things they need.
While we can't help everyone, we are looking forward to making this trip and providing a little Christmas spirit to some of these people who are struggling each day as they rebuild their lives. If you would like to be a part of this effort, we would truly appreciate any amount you care to give.
We plan on departing the 15th of December.
