Angels on the Street Community Outreach Project

I am so pleased to be a part of this! Please read and respond as you can.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Pristine Events is proud to present its first annual Community Outreach Project entitled "Angels On the Streets."

Birthed by Jennifer Cook and Shalette Robinson, the mission of this project is to multiply what's been given so that the needs of others will met - Matthew 14:13-18.

Our goal is to collect charitable donations such as gloves, mittens, scarves, hats, jackets/coats, blankets, thermals, t-shirts, toiletries, gift cards (any denomination) and products for babies.

We also have a t-shirt that you can purchase to commemorate, donate or give as a gift. Please see the Printfection Shop for t-shirt purchases.

ALL MONIES BEYOND THE SHIRT EXPENSE WILL BE USED FOR OUTREACH.

We are collecting items from November 1st-December 6th. Your support will make the difference for children, homeless, and those hit by the recession.

Additionally, as a way to say thank you, the donor who partners with " Angels On the Streets" and aides by getting the most contributions will be given a $25 gift card to Ruby Tuesdays (dinner for two!).

Feel free to contact us through Pristine Events at:

or call:

Jennifer Cook at (443) 956-8293
Shalette Robinson at (704) 449-2004.
