I got FOUR huge, wonderful, fabulous boxes of fabric from Swavelle/Mill Creek this week. We love their fabric, it makes beautiful, sturdy bags. On top of all that, they sent boxes to the other Green Bag Lady locations in Tennessee and New York too! Thanks Meltem and everyone at Swavelle/Mill Creek. We adore you!
These 50 bags will go off to AmeriCorps tomorrow. This is what they are going to be used for:
AmeriCorps at Focus Points Family Resource Center in Denver, Colorado is currently working with other neighborhood partners to coordinate a weekly Grocery Trip Bus for residents. There is not a full service grocery store in the neighborhoods that they serve, which leaves approximately 10,000 low-income residents without access to healthy, affordable food. They are hoping to alleviate this barrier to access with this new bus service. The weekly trips are set to begin April 3, 2014.
In order to help this service be a success, they will provide incentives to those that utilize it and those that refer others to it. Green Bag Lady bags are going to be one of the incentives. YAY!

That's wonderful of Swavelle/Mill Creek to donate so much fabric to all of our locations!! Your watercolors are very pretty! Little Man is doing a great job turning those bags. I think it's great that Green Bag Lady bags are going to be one of the incentives!
Not only are you an excellent seamstress, but a wonderful artist too! You are also a very generous woman. You ROCK! :)

bigfun 100 mg is used to treat erectile dysfunction in men. Take it as needed before a sexual move. The best time to take it is about 1 hour before sexual activity, but you can take the pill any time from 4 hours to 30 minutes before sexual activity. It usually should not be taken more than once every 24 hours.
