Update…
Well, I’ve been talking to some people and, I have found out that I need to call some Churches…a ton of them are affiliated with homeless shelters. Also, Salvation Army will lead me in the right direction, too! I’ll be working on that, over the next couple of weeks!
Also, we still need a catch phrase. I’m thinking something along the lines of…Project Lovey: Bloggers uniting to help children, one lovey at a time. Or something along those lines. But, I really, really want to incorporate the fact that it is about bloggers helping the homeless children!!
And…we still need a badge! That is a semi-priority! Because, we need awareness about this project around the blogosphere!
So…those are the updates for the day. I am working on my daughters Valentine Party, for her class today. But, after tomorrow…I’m working on this project…with a vengeance!

just a thought Melissa….foster children usually carry all their belongings around with them in garbage bags. this is very sad. They are always in need of suitcases, duffel bags, backpacks, etc. Every county/city has a foster care system. One year we collected backpacks and filled each one with a stuffed animal, coloring book, crayons, books, games, etc. It was a huge success. Please let me know what I can do to help..

Oh, Alison! What a great idea! That is awesome!
Melissa, I like your catchphrase! It would be nice if the catchphrase could fit on a badge.
I should check in my area and see where the items could go around here. Everyone on the blogroll could look into their own area so that people in each of the areas can easily help.
I’m so proud of you and all of your hard work. Yeah you!
