#supportnorthernmoms 2021 Campaign!
Instructions:
Decide what type of box you’d like to send to a remote community: school box (with art supplies etc.), daycare box or shelter box.
Choose a bunch of items from the lists – ideally, shop at a dollar store to save on costs (and there is lots of variety!) Purchase a Flat Rate Box from Canada post. The large size is around $30. There are also small and medium sizes.
Fill the box.
Send us a message with what type of box it is and also send a picture of the full box! We will post on Bad Moms and talk about the results of the fund raiser on our live broadcast in December : ) If you don’t want to let people know about your box, no problem.
The address is posted for where each type of box needs to go – there are dozens of communities/schools in need so each box will likely go to a different area – northern communities SO APPRECIATE your help! Send your box!
