Care-Give@way-Final

Care@Home is a bespoke nanny placement and domestic staffing firm servicing more than 70 client families locally. Client families and friends have donated carloads of children’s wear, toys, books and supplies which will be given away on Saturday, 14 Dec.

Managing Director, Barbara Williams said, “Charity truly begins at home, and we are so very richly blessed. With the support of our clients, we will impact so many families who, in many cases, are in need of the basics for their children.

“At this time of year, the feeling of inadequacy weighs so heavily on parents who are struggling. I personally just wanted to help . We’ve been really overwhelmed by the response. And our staff has gone above and beyond in helping families sort, wash, iron and pack for donation. It’s been great.”

    gently used children’s clothing, shoes, toys….

    since when does a child ever use his or her’s clothes,shoes and toys gently!

  2. Opinions says:

    What they’re saying is children do grow so fast and their items may be in new or good condition. That’s what gently used means

  3. A Clue - says:

    It does mention that all items are being given away…that means free…that means getting some stuff for free…which is awesome in and of itself…

    And I know that there are sponsors that have donated gas vouchers, belco vouchers, grocery vouchers, Hunts Family Food vouchers, cases of water, juices, infant formula, like new toys and games..strollers…just stuff that the young family with children and perhaps parents feeling a pinch could use…

    The spirit is positive. Just enjoy what this group is trying to do for those that need a hand. Be thankful that God has so blessed you that you don’t need to go…
