Philanthro-free item of the week

If you attend the Ann Arbor Vineyard, one of the items on the Single Moms donation list is toilet paper. Is anyone up for the challenge of flooding the donation box with Quilted Northern from Meijer on Sunday? If you are so inclined, why not round up $1.50 (change jar? bottom of your purse? couch cushions? under the floor mats in your car?), print a coupon here and buy 6 double rolls to bless a single mom.

If you don't attend the A2V, consider contacting organizations in your area to see if they are accepting these types of donations. A small investment on our part can make a huge difference for someone else.

If you do this will you please leave a comment or email me to let me know?

You guys are awesome. So Tiff, the Ann Arbor Vineyard church is located in the old Ann Arbor skating rink/Ann Arbor civic theater on Platt Road. They're obviously open on Sundays for church services from like 9am until 2pm, but if it's too hard to drop it off on Sunday here's another place I just found that accepts donations:

However, if you are free on Sunday I can meet you somewhere and trade you beef/seafood rebate forms for the TP. It'll look like a very strange drug deal.
