44 trucks & 38 cars

Post by charlese »

Just finished up the batch of toy cars and trucks for our favorite charity, "My Stuff Bags Foundation".

The Stuff Bags go to kids all over the U.S. and elswhere where Kids have been left with no things to call their own. You can see the organization on Facebook. There is even a photo of Wife and me holding a portion of the last delivery. She makes all kinds of machine embroidered stuff.
