Pajama Program Donation 2010

Last year, as a Valentine to my son, I collected and donated 200 new fuzzy pajama sets and about 100 uplifting books to the Pajama Program, a national charity that distributes new pajamas and books to children in foster care, homeless shelters, and other tough circumstances away from the love and comfort of a stable home at bedtime.

This year, I'll be in Florida for the winter and I've noticed that the Palm Beach County chapter of Pajama Program is holding a fundraising event on March 7th. My goal, even more of a moonshot than last year's, is to show up at the event with at least 500 pajama sets in honor of my husband and I's five year anniversary March 5th.

If I accomplish that, *I* could sleep better at night.

If you'd like to contribute new pajamas, children's books, or funds to my virtual pajama drive, I'd welcome your support. If you know of any shops having spectacular sales, free shipping, and/or great discounts, I'd love the info on them. Last year's 200 pajama donation wouldn't have been possible without some sharp-eyed shoppers on my friends list making those purchases within my means.
