My side project

My big project (aside from homeschooling - but really it fits in with what we are doing) is a children's clothing charity called the Gifts of the Heart Exchange. I organize donation pick ups from a local children's clothing resale store (Kid to Kid in Lehi) three times a week. The volunteers then sort all the clothing, and twice a semester we put it all out and invite people to come and take what they need. It is pretty darn cool, if I do say so myself.

We just held an exchange on the 5-7 of November. The actual exchange just takes place on Saturday morning, but we have volunteers on the Thursday night/Friday before to set out all the donations.

Here are a few of us - we had over 50 people volunteer!



We have two different sessions - one for MBA Spouse Association members and Law Partners (wives of Law students), and one for the general BYU public. Here's a before-anyone-was-in-the-room picture, and a 150-people-were-lined-up-outside-the-building-at-11am picture:
