"Drop Your Drawers" Campaign a Huge Success in Providing Essential Clothing Needs for Columbia's Oliver Gospel Mission
18th Street Design (www.18street.com) announced today that the Drop Your Drawers clothing drive was a huge success in providing essential clothing needs for Columbia's oldest homeless shelter - the Oliver Gospel Mission.
"We have always been supportive of the mission and services of the Oliver Gospel Mission. They provide such an outstanding service to the homeless of Columbia - both spiritually and physically.", stated Jay Wingard, President of 18th Street Design. "We felt this campaign would add a little extra help to their main needs - under garments and socks for homeless men."
The campaign ran from December 1 through December 20th. Clients of 18th Street and the general public donated over 500 pairs of socks and underwear for the mission. Clothing items will be delivered to the mission on December 21.
Jana Baxley was the lucky winner of the Apple iPod Shuffle MP3 player given as a prize for each entry of a package of socks or underwear. Congratulations to Mrs. Baxley!
