  1. Hello Rev. Russ,
    I have some men’s clothing and a few coats that I would like to donate. I also have a pair of mens sneakers that were only worn for one day. they are size 13 and have Velcro closures, so if you have a man that could use those , even though they aren’t winter shoes, they are like new, and non skid. I also have some small woman’s clothing. and a box of ladies size 6 shoes and boots , almost new. I sell things on ebay to make ends meet but certain items I feel better donating than selling. thank you for your time and the wonderful things you do
