Comforting
Comforters collect items for local donations
Comforting Comforters, a local service group founded and run by Rachel
and Bridget Unger (a senior at Greenville high school and a 5th grader
at DeColores Montessori), is once again collecting items to donate to
the homeless of Darke County and the Darke County Animal Shelter and
BARK Rescue.
Boxes for local collections are located in Montage Cafe and Tangles...a
unique hair & nail salon, both located downtown on S Broadway in
Greenville. Comforting Comforters is collecting the following
items: cinch bags, deodorant, toothpaste, toothbrushes, single serving
tuna packets, body wash/soap, dog toys (like tennis balls, rope toys or
similar), cool collars for dogs in the summer, chill pads for
dogs. These items will be distributed through Community Action
Partnership in Darke County and animals at the Darke county Animal
Shelter and BARK Rescue.
The boxes will be in place and donations can be made through July 6,
2018.
Started in Winter 2018, Comforting Comforters collected 337 pairs of
socks, 154 blankets, 26 dog toys and 28 hats - all donated to Community
Action Partnership locally, the Darke County Animal Shelter and BARK
Rescue). This was possible because of local businesses that
hosted the collection boxes, donations from Lowe's to make the
collection boxes possible and the community as a whole.
