Review for Sharing Connections Inc, Downers Grove, IL, USA
I have been a volunteer at Sharing Connections for 5 years and have seen how this group impacts a family in need. We try to give a family in need furniture, bedding, household items, clothes, and much more. All of these items are donations from the communities around us, many who have donated to us for years. I have seen a mother cry when we were able to give her children each a bed, something they never had. Several homeless veterans have come through, looking for a second chance and so happy to receive the items they needed. At Christmas, we join efforts with Marine Toys for Tots, and one mom broke down when we were able to give her son a bike. At Christmas, we receive all sorts of new toys, gift cards, coats, homemade hats and scarfs that the community knows we will give to clients. I am amazed every year at the generosity of people!
