Kathleen Prosdocimo brought the youth group from The Creek Church in Goose Creek to work on July 28. What a great group- they sorted clothes, restocked shelves, and moved all of our special event items to the new bunker to make room for more clothes! It was hot work, but they did it with big smiles! Thank you!!

Thank you John White!
Tuesday, July 6th, 2010
Eight-year-old John White, Jr. has been raising money for LOR by selling “flipoutz” bracelets. He has raised over $100 so far and hopes to exceed $250. He has been an avid “seller” since he was 4 years old. He started with lemonade, and donated some of his proceeds to the Leukemia and Lymphoma societies in the past. When he wanted to sell the new bracelets, he said he wanted to help “orphans” so his mother chose LOR. The bracelets were invented by friends of theirs in Davidson, NC. Check out www.flipoutz.com.

S.C. STRONG Helps with Storage Shed
Monday, July 5th, 2010
John Hamilton and some of the men from S.C.STRONG recently refurbished our garage so that we can use it for storage space. Besides painting and power washing, they boarded up the windows, put on a new roof, and took off the old garage door. All this in the 95 degree heat we have been having! What a wonderful blessing!! Thanks so much!!
