NOTE ~ BGSC is still collecting “underwear for the underprivileged.”  In many orphanages overseas, there are simply not enough undergarments for the children housed in these facilities.  A friend in Jacksonville, FL who is adopting two teen boys from Ukraine is collecting packages of brand new underwear for youth (sizes 8 to 16).  Bring your items anytime in the next few weeks and they’ll be added to a box that will be shipped at the end of April.  Thank you for always coming through for those in need!
