MADISON – Softball team players at James Clemens High School are collecting winter necessities to help homeless individuals.
Through Dec. 2, softball players can accept clothing, clean blankets, hats, gloves, socks and other warm items, laundry supplies and quarters for laundry-mat machines.
Loads of Love organization will distribute the donated items. “Loads of Love is a group of volunteers that provides laundry services, a warm meal and a listening ear to the homeless and needy in the Huntsville area,” softball parent Jennifer McDowell said.
Softball players are collecting donations in Coach Barnes’ room (B111) during the Refuel hour.
On Dec. 3, the James Clemens Softball Team will drop off all donated items to the Laundry Room 2 (735 U.S. 72 E. in Huntsville at the intersection of Sparkman Drive and Memorial Parkway). Loads of Love volunteers meet at this site monthly to wash and dry clothes free of charge for those people in need.
For more information, call McDowell at 256-509-0033 or visit thelaundryroom2.com.
