Her name is Kari. She lives in Washington, MI. It seems that she always knows when From Our Hearts is in need. This was time was no exception. Planning was underway for our very first annual Mother's Day card making event and fundraiser to be held on February 6 and Kari e-mailed us, out of the blue.
"I'm sending you a box of supplies. I figured you could use them."
Not knowing what she had in mind (as we never do when Kari starts filling up her box), we waited patiently for her box to arrive. And take a look at what we found when we opened it:
Card stock, designer paper, ribbon, stamp sets, wheels, and long envelopes (always needed for those over-sized cards that arrive without envelopes!)
Kari was our very first contributor to our cause, long before From Our Hearts officially became a not for profit. She knew just what was needed, without any words spoken.
Since that time, many boxes have arrived from her - and as always, they contain just what is needed.
An angel, from Michigan, moved to send what is needed at just the right time.
This box is no exception. Much of what she sent will be used at the card making event on February 6 and the new-in-package items are in the silent auction to help raise the much needed funds to help us to continue our operations - to purchase card stock for our volunteers in Kansas, supplies to ship the boxes and of course, the cost of mailing the 20 + boxes every month.
Kari's connection over the miles to From Our Hearts is unique; she is one more angel in our corner!
