DOUGLAS CARROLL SPA, SALON AND BOUTIQUE to ASSIST IN GETTING SUPPLIES TO HAITI
Raleigh, NC – (January 15, 2010) – Douglas Carroll Salon will make sure any supplies dropped off at the Salon get to the Relief Efforts
Haiti Relief: After the devastating earthquake that struck Haiti on Tuesday, North Hills efforts will be paired with Horne Memorial United Methodist Church in Clayton as well as the American Red Cross for Haitian Relief. North Hills will serve as a collection location for specific supplies that are needed immediately in Haiti (see lists below) as well as for monetary donations through the Red Cross. With missionaries and medial personnel from HMUMC already located in Haiti, there is an effective plan in place for disseminating the collected items upon their arrival. They will be continually collecting and shipping to Haiti. North Hills will be collecting this weekend; Friday, Saturday, and Sunday from 12pm-4pm in the Commons. Look for the bright yellow tents. In case of rain, the collection location will be moved inside the space located between Learning Express and Lenscrafters.
