What a wonderful way to get perfect risers made for the birthday table. Angie Butler who is our Birthday Table Chief asked her parents Gene and Judy Butler to come to the Harbor for a tour. She showed Gene the ugly plastic shoe racks she had to contend with to show off her wares. Dad got the hint! One week later two new wooden tiers: lovely to look at, sturdy and functional appeared! Dads are sensational. Mom beams at the birthday ministry her daughter has.
Carts Come in Handy :
A very helpful addition to the needs of the Harbor and our clients. Thanks to those who donated some of these. We could use a couple more.
Our fresh vegetables get moved first by machines, then by volunteers' muscles when they arrive at Allen Road.

The first stop for clothes donated to Harbor Impact Ministries are the pews as you enter - but did you ever wonder what the second stop is?
It is the sorting room.
Volunteers take the clothes to the sorting room first. They are then sent to the laundry if necessary, divided by bank and distributed. Some clothing has to "linger" in the sorting room until space can be found for it in one of the clothing banks, especially women's :) .

If you wonder why the clothes smell so good that come from Harbor Impact Ministries - there are two reasons:
1) many of our donors wash the clothes they donate right before they bring them in; and
2) we have a washer and a dryer and a laundry room at Harbor Impact Ministries.
