Dear Friends,

Thank you for contacting the St. Rita's Angel Group. I have attached
information about the St. Rita's Angel Project per your
stritasangels@... email inquiry. The goal of this project is
to help the surviving residents of St. Rita's Nursing home who have
lost everything. If you know anyone who is interested in help the
surviving residents of St. Rita's, please forward this email to
them.

Sincerely,
Jodi Hanson

***********************ST.RITA'S Nursing Home***********************
To whom it may concern,
The tragic story of St. Rita's nursing home has captured the nation.
Every major newspaper and the national media have covered the story
of how the residents survived despite the owner's negligence in not
evacuating them. The residents have lost everything, their homes,
personal possessions, dear friends, and family.
This really hit home for me because my grandmother, Trishka Stevens
was a St. Rita's survivor. The media has put so much emphasis on
tragedy of what happened and are forgetting about the residents
themselves. That is why we came up with the idea of "The St. Rita's
Angel Project." The goal of this project is to let the residents
know how much we care for them and that they are not forgotten, but
loved by many people who have been praying for them daily. We want
to provide the surviving residents with much needed items such as
wheel chairs, walkers, clothing, shoes, socks, undergarments,
snacks, games, art supplies, shampoo, lotions, powder, etc….
Whatever the residents need or want in a form of a care package. We
know this care package will bring a smile to their faces and give
them comfort to know they are loved.
We have contacted Love, INC. a local non-profit organization who
wants to help us facilitate this project. We are having all people
who want to donate items or money to the surviving residents of St.
Rita's nursing home, send them to:
Love, INC.
C/O The St. Rita's Angel Project
3300 Vanburen Street
Hudsonville, MI 49426
(616) 662-6426
www.loveinthenameofchrist.org
(Checks are payable to Love, INC)
All donations are tax deductible. Once all the items needed are
received, myself along with a group of volunteers from Love, INC.
will box everything up and forward the items directly to the
residents.
If this project generates extra donations and we hope to get those
extra items out to other families or nursing home residents in need.
I will attach the list of what the residents need. Please consider
helping the survivors of St. Rita's nursing home. Since the
hurricane, a little over 55 families' members and nurses of St.
Rita's nursing home have joined and formed a support group. We have
been helping one another locate our missing loved ones. I know this
will be such a blessing to the residents and their families.
