Description

We will be hosting a Essentials Drive to collect needed items for Contact Ministries to help them complete their mission.

We will meet at The American Legion post 32. Sign-up will be noon-1pm. 1pm KSU, We will then ride to Contact Ministries to deliver needed goods. A list of needed items will be listed below with a full list available on the Contact Ministries web page @ https://contactministries.com/wish-list/ .

We will then be riding to Mama Lee's Sandbar for a late lunch, Fellowship & Brotherhood.

We have started this drive because we found out that Contact Ministries fall on rough times and lack of support during the summer months. Several bike clubs & orgs already support this mission and we want to make sure it is a total success.

Here is a list of some of the most needed items as per the CM staff themselves.

Toilet paper, paper towels, bath towels, hand/face towels, pillows, shampoo, conditioner, deodorant, women/children underwear, pull ups, sippy cups, bottles, wipes, toothbrushes, laundry soap, women/children socks, new children's clothing/pajamas (boys and girls), gift cards or donations for purchasing new tennis shoes for our school age students. Cash Donations are also welcome.

We ask riders to bring as many of these items as they can afford on the ride that day to donate. There will be a car/truck there to carry larger items for riders. Items may also be donated at the American Legion between 11am and 1pm if you cant make the ride.

ALSO we will be setting up donation locations at Walmart. Freedom Drive on May 16th, N Dirksen May 17th & South 6th Street on the 18th. we will be there 11am-5pm. We have chose Walmart because you can affordably buy the needed items on location and no need to take them anywhere. We will deliver all items collected on June 4th during the Ride.

If you do not know what Contact Ministries does for our community please see there website @ https://contactministries.com/ Take a look and I'm sure you will understand why we wish to help this cause.
