Annual Toiletries Drive July 10-21

It’s that time again!  Our annual toiletries drive for The Other Bank kicks off on July 10.  Attached is a flyer to help spread the word and encourage our co-workers to join in the effort.

More than 95% of their hygiene products come from donors.

If you are unable to contribute to The Other Bank, but would like to donate to your local YWCA, please visit http://www.ywca.org/site/apps/kb/cs/contactsearch.asp?c=cuIRJ7NTKrLaG&b=7527667&state=WA&submit=submit for a list of local YWCA associations.
As your agency coordinator, I welcome your questions and thank you in advance for your generosity.  In 2016, this drive collected $10,800.00 worth of toiletries to help women and families in Thurston County.  Let us work to make the 2017 drive an even bigger success.
