 IFSA-Butler's Indianapolis staff recently held a Winter Tea for all the tenants in the building where our office is located. Program Advisor Laura Wallman organized the tea and asked attendees to bring donations of food, clothing, toiletries, diapers and other necessities for Coburn Place, a battered women's shelter.
The donations were so plentiful that they had to be transported to the shelter in two large vehicles. Staff at Coburn Place were extremely grateful for the donations. They even mentioned and thanked us on their Facebook page.
