Clothes - Round #2

We are out of Paraguay (currently visiting with Sisters in Argentina) but I wanted to provide a quick summary on how we used the clothes provided by Nancy's visit (in June).  In Round #2 of clothing collection, we received:

• 49 pairs of underwear and socks
• 49 pairs of boys pants
• 144 boys shirts
• 94 pairs of girls pants
• 102 shirts and dresses for girls
• hair supplies and shoestrings (you would be amazed at our need for shoestrings)
• 10 pairs of shoes

This brought our clothing totals to (insert drum roll here)...

• 109 articles of clothing for babies (under 3)
• 150 pairs of boy's pants
• 340 boy's shirts
• 287 girls dresses/pants/shirts
• 28 pairs of pajamas
• 13 coats and jackets
• 35 pairs of shoes
• bottles, socks and underwear, hair supplies and shoestrings
• Over 350 LBS of Clothes in TOTAL!!!

Special thanks to our friends who donated in round #2:

And, again, a special thanks to Nancy and my sisters who have helped with collecting ropas.  

Kids were SO proud of their new clothes.  I even had a kid show me his t-shirt that we gave him on the last day of school... a whole 1 month after receiving it!!!  We were not able to distribute ALL the clothes we received which is amazing because the kids are going to continue receiving clothes for the remainder of the year.  Thanks again for supporting our mission.
