‘Every Child Needs’ campaign calls for items

Worcester County Youth and Family Services is calling for donations as part of its recently launched “Every Child Needs” campaign.

The organization requests towels, hygiene products, as well as bedding essentials: pillows, blankets, sheets, and pillowcases.

“We want to go forward as far as offering the basics, but then going forward as far as trying to get kids mattresses if they need them, beds if they need them so we’ll need to find additional community partners to accomplish that,” Debbie Smullen, project coordinator for the Every Child Needs Campaign, said.

Executive Director Steve Taylor said the program is mostly donation-based, but added the organization did receive a grant from the Community Foundation of the Eastern Shore.

Taylor said the inspiration behind the program began several months ago during the Young Professionals of Ocean City’s Christmas Spirit Shopping Campaign.

I hate to be blunt but won't this kind of need go away once the Democrats finish killing all the babies that come about? It will be "too much trouble".

I may be very cynical, but sounds like they are preparing for a load of illegals.
