Are you part of a club?

How can your club help another group in need?

A mom from a playgroup I am in recently informed our group of this:

A family friend has a son in Afghanistan who is serving this third tour. They are in a rural area where they have a lot of contact with the locals. As an active mom of three children I have been known to run my kids to McDonald's in the past and the little toys they get with their happy meals never seem to leave my car. So, for years I have been collecting these types of toys along with the toys they get at the dentist; the doctor; Chuck E. Cheese.....you get the idea.

I would like for our group to compile any toys we are willing to donate. We can then mail them to our friend serving in Afghanistan, so that he and his fellow soldiers can hand them out to the Afghani children.

...I am definitely on board with this idea!!
