Sarah Ogletree Ritter, former youth intern at FBC Sylva who now works for Creation Care Alliance of WNC, has been in contact with Gaye Buchanan, WMU director. Sarah lives and works in Mitchell County, which is one of the hardest hit counties in WNC from Helene. She is in need of gently used shirts, hats, gloves, baby & children items, towels, wash cloths, hygiene items, canned foods and gift cards. Please bring your donations to the Loving Kindness Room and WMU members will deliver them to her parents. Thank you!
