Original idea list.....

Lori,

I have attached a list of gift suggestions.  You may want to add items that are not on the list and that is fine.  Be creative.  We get make bags, coin purses, pocketbooks, book marks, etc. 

Please make sure the items are new and of good quality.
There are plenty of dollar type stores that the survivors shop at.

Thank you for blessing the Survivors.
