This Is What Caring For Others Looks Like

Post by Mai

Today has been both rewarding and exhausting.  We are sorting and organizing the donations that we received from Santa Margarita Catholic High School, St. John's Episcopal School, Orange Theory RSM, and Riverside High School.  
​

• 1,050 yards of surgical tape
• 270 gauze pads
• 4 blood glucose monitors
• 1,200 alcohol prep pads
• 3,000 surgical gloves
• 34 elastic bandage wraps
• 3,060 band-aids
• 12,000 cotton balls
• 17 ace bandages
• 430 face masks

And this is before the donations from Western Digital which we will collect this Thursday and make first aid and hygiene kits.  They are also supplying us with 25 volunteers to help make the kits and then package it up for shipping.  

Project C.U.R.E. is also donating Kits for Kids which are first aid kits for children and Medline is donating a variety of medical supplies. We have received so many medical supplies this year, I am incredibly grateful to all the people that have supported my foundation.  

I will post pics after the Western Digital event on Thursday.  Admittedly, I am feeling a bit of anxiety with the amount of homework I have that will be due when school starts in mid- August.  Tomorrow will be a full day of focussing on essays and biology.
