February 2020 Outreach:
College Women’s Club Outreach Committee Thank you to club members for your generosity in donating stuffed animals to CARE house at both the November and December meetings. We received a very nice thank you letter from Libby Nicholson, founding director, expressing her gratitude for our organization’s donation and support. |

Many of us have experienced the devastating effects of drug addiction through friends, co-worker’s families and perhaps our own families. Children are the most vulnerable as they have no voice in the matter and can not seek help on their own. Our February meeting features Brigid’s Path, a newborn recovery center for babies born drug exposed. It is also a place where non-judgmental support and education is provided for mothers to improve healthy family outcomes.
The outreach committee kindly seeks your assistance in supporting the mission of Brigid’s Path by bringing a donation to the February meeting. Several items that are needed immediately and are convenient to bring to the meeting are: healthy snack items for the family kitchenette, pens, unscented disinfectant wipes, paper towels, liquid dish detergent. To learn more about Brigid’s Path please go to www.brigidspath.org. To see a complete list of items that can be donated click “contribute” in the upper right corner of the home page.

PAST Outreach Activities:
DECEMBER 2019: Members received more Kindness cards. (They were encouraged to give a card to someone who has just completed a random act of kindness on behalf of the member or friend.) Spreading the holiday spirit was encouraged.
NOVEMBER 2019: Members brought stuffed animals to the meeting; the animals were donated to Care House for the comfort of children in crisis situations.
OCTOBER 2019: ACTS OF KINDNESS. Cards were provided for members to take with them to give to someone who has been kind to them. (Someone opening a door or letting you go first at the grocery checkout or giving you a compliment, etc.) Your kindness card will bring a smile to someone's face after the gesture.
The 2019 - 2020 Chairperson of the Outreach Committee is Trudy O'Rourke.
