beds and fabric...we need sheets!

As the weeks continue, I am discovering odd circumstances about the trip... Paths crossing...small world "people" experiences...you know...not the sci fi kind of stuff, but the little nuances that reaffirm your decisions. Today's? We need yards and yards of cotton bed linens. Let me explain... As a mission group, not only will we be volunteering our time in Addis, (I always want to type Adidas) haha...but we will be bringing bags of donations. Stacy contacted Project 61 today and discussed their wish list. They need bed sheets. Twin bed sheet sets for approximately 150 beds at the boarding school. Each student will start the new year with one new and clean set of sheets. We aren't talking the bed-in-a-bag comforter and bolster pillow deal. Just a clean set of solid color bed sheets. That's a Target item for approximately $15.00. An item that the kids won't be coming to school with on their own. So we'll do it! We will raise the money needed to purchase some, ask our friends and family to donate some, involve our communities (I will have our Girl Scouts working on it!) and our little group will bring over 150 sets of bed sheets. Yards and yards and yards of cotton...see...I WAS MEANT TO DO THIS! Here is a picture of a typical dorm room that Stacy took several months ago. And oh, there are six beds to a room this size.
