Goal Reached!

 I can't begin to tell all of you how touched I am that so many of you are so willing to help out. Not even just willing but you are spreading the word and collecting donations from everyone you know, people that don't even know Ben. Some of YOU don't even know Ben yourselves but maybe you will be able to feel his spirit after all is said and done. You are taking on this project with great vigor and for that I thank you.

ANNOUNCEMENT:
We have reached our goal of 50 totes!
{And are actually close to 70}

PLUS, we have extended the deadline and will be collecting donations as long as they keep coming in.
Our new goal is 100 totes!
So, let's make it happen!

I have created a simple single page flyer that you may use to distribute to your work, family, friends, church and school, etc that explains the project.

So many people have been affected by cancer, whether it is yourself or a loved one, that I believe this project likely hits home for many of you. We all share a little piece of ourselves with those of whom we serve.
Matthew Chapter 25:35-40
For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in:
Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.
Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink?
When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee?
Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?
And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.
 Every act of service brings us a little closer to Christ.
Merry Christmas.
