Where Do the Sleeping Bags Go? In a grassroots and ecumenical way we suggest you serve your backyard first, then the next larger city. Find the need in your area. Make contact with local social workers, and tell them you have sleeping bags for people who are homeless or cold. Very often individuals and local companies will do a one-time delivery for you in the direction they are traveling. Make arrangements and provide an address. There is no limit to the good you can do for your community. Develop a list of regional and local contacts. Become your area contact or combine your efforts ecumenically. Your work will be blessed and people will be helped. Always plan in a cost-free way, and you will serve many people. Ask for donations of sewing supplies such as yarns, thread, material, blankets,
neckties and give it away to people who want to help. Teach another group.
