Kyra and I were invited to see the furniture that a new women's refuge have taken off the virtual warehouse!
We had tears, excitement and more joy than we can explain as we saw the amazing donations, the quality, the generosity of our GIVIT community. The quality was exceptional!!
It felt like we were in a resort!
All the women who will be sitting here on this couch have run from an abusive home with 3-5 children.
They are hiding from abusive husbands and partners.
We think it is a good place to hide!
All the rooms have a cot ready.
The cupboards are filled with toys.
All the linen is from GIVIT donors..This unit is beautiful! We can't believe the funiture is used!
All the kids rooms were inviting, and lots of fun!The houses are homes!
Here is Kyra our National Manager. It is so wondrous to see the donations really helping women in need! Thank you thank you thank you - to all who donated!
Well done everyone. Fabulous donations, so good to see such wonderful quality. Well done to the people running the refuge in making it look like a home and arranging everything nicely - even colour matching bedcovers in the kids bedrooms :-)
ReplyDeleteLittle things like that will mean a lot.
Good luck to the women and children who end up here, hope it's the beginning of a wonderful new life.
