Caring Heart is going to Oklahoma to aide in their recovery from this recent tragedy.We are in need of bedding (new or like new) towels (new or like new), and plastic sheeting, work gloves, baby items (diapers wipes etc), cleaning supplies, hygiene supplies, kitchen items ie. pots, pans, dish sets (new or like new), water, gator aide, flash lights, batteries,ready to eat nonperishable foods and tarps.
We are asking our friends, family and neighbors to look into their hearts and ask themselves "What if this happened to us"? Once again look into your hearts and help us help others.
Thank You and God Bless
