Sheets and Towels

I've been volunteering in the Cruz Roja clinica again lately and boy do we need sheets and towels, mostly sheets. We have one to cover each gurney and 1 extra. Soon as one of them gets bloody or spoogy it has to be washed and dried soon to replace the clean one.

If you have any extra sheets or towels or pillows or blankets etc that you can part with we can really put them to use at CR. Any size, color, whatever. We're not fussy.

Gracias!

I sent an email to the folks in our Community and also to friends. Have one response and will wait for more.

Thank you, John! Even one sheet will help.

We have found a bunch at my home. Can you pick them up or PM me so we can discuss details? More will be coming, I'm sure.

I bet you could just drop them off at the Cruz Roja facility in Chapala. We have a couple to get over there as well.

And if more are needed Trailrunner, maybe you could call the woman who does the of gossip/society/whatever column for the Guadalajara Reporter. I bet she'd put a blurb in her column. Can't remember her name, sort of French-ish sounding. Middle of the paper. Haven't read it in a long time.

Can we drop them off at the red cross table at LCS for us folks in Ajijic??

Yay! Thanks guys.
Yes, John, I'll be happy to pick them up! Just PM me when you've collected them and we can figure out the details.
Thanks, Rosa, you can certainly drop them off at the clinica.
Z, don't know about the table. Is there someone there who would be willing to run them over to the clinica? If not, just PM me and I'll be happy to pick them up too.
Thanks so much everyone, both for the linens and for caring.

Anybody need me to pick up their linen donations? John???

Sorry for the slow response....had to check with the commander.

Lots of Queen sheet sets.

And towels. Need any towels????

PM me with a location and we can drop them off.

SunFan

I'm in SAT too, I can pick them up from you or you can take them to the Cruz Roja Clinic and drop them off.
Let me know what you want to do. If you want me to pick them up, send me a PM with your location.
Thanks mucho!!!

Yes, I'll PM you with directions for Los Arroyos Sur

Great, John! Thanks.

I can do pick ups today, but not tomorrow (Friday) or Saturday.

Yes, SunFan, we can use towels too! Thanks so much everyone for digging through your stuff for CR. Now lets get it to them.

The Commander just tapped me on the shoulder. Or was it the back of the head?

She reminded me we're going to the Legion Luau on Saturday and can easily drop the sheets and towels off at CR when we're there.

Anything we need to say to the folks at CR when we arrive?

SunFan

P.S. Sounds like you triggered some solid support through your request. Great effort!

That's great, SunFan! When at the luau, come up and introduce yourself to me. We'll be the Hui Hawaii Band.

No, just tell them they are donations for Cruz Roja. and thanks so much again.

You know, we foreigners are a generous bunch for the most part, I've found over the years that if I just ask or tell people what in needed at CR many kind folks respond. Many years ago a Texas man and his wife gave us a check for 10,000US and we bought an incubator, 2 pulse ox machines, and a brand new LifePak 12 EKG machine. We are a good bunch of people.

Aloha

John donated a big bag of sheets today.

Spent a delightful few minutes chatting with John and checking out his house. What a house, it's beautiful. If you're looking for a beautiful home in a very nice area you would do well to take a look at this place.

Thanks, John.
