ShoeBox Project!

Last week I designed my own shoebox for the United Way Shoebox Project! The way it works is you take a empty shoebox decorate it and put supplies and care products inside of it. Then drop off the box at one of the drop off locations and it will be given to the less fortunate! It ends 5/8/2011 (Mothers day) Here's where you can volunteer: http://www.unitedwayatlanta.org/Volunteer/Pages/ShoeboxProject.aspx Here's a video of me making mine! My Mom made one too!
