A Word From The Heart of Our President
Dear TRM supporter:
Through the generous support of our community, Toy Rescue Mission has been able to remain a viable contributor to the needs of children and seniors (with Alzheimer’s and dementia) for OVER 17 YEARS, but the on-going needs continue!
Do you know how much ONE GIFT from you might be able to help TRM?!
Do you have a SPECIAL TOY OR COLLECTION of some type in your home collecting dust? Through a donation of all or part of your treasured collection, TRM might be able to turn that donation into cash to help keep our doors open!
RENT, although a BARGAIN at only 50c a square foot for retail space, is still our biggest expense!
Our volunteers need LIGHTS, HEAT and ELECTRICITY while working on the toys!
We need CLEANING SUPPLIES and PARTS to restore the toys!
We need SUPPLIES (T.P., paper towels, snacks, soft drinks) to accommodate our volunteers and INCENTIVE GIFTS (gift certificates, etc.) to recognize them for their loyal service!
We need OFFICE SUPPLIES, EQUIPMENT, and MONEY FOR MAINTENANCE and REPAIRS, to keep our office running smoothly!
And, last-but-not-least, we need to BEGIN NOW to build a fund to allow us to have PAID, FULL-TIME STAFFING, so we can adopt NORMAL (instead of part-time) business hours and ensure our place in the future of our community!
PLEASE…won’t you consider how you might help us continue the work we are doing YEAR-ROUND to bring joy to so many children and seniors?
THANK YOU FOR WHATEVER YOU CAN DO!
Karol Barkley
President
