I just wanted to take a minute and say a final THANK YOU for all who participating in Couponing for Community last week. It was so much more than I ever hoped!
I did the best that I could in tallying up the number of items that were donated nationwide using the pictures that were posted on our Facebook page.
Are you ready?
As a group of bloggers and readers, we donated over 3155 items to food pantries, homeless shelters, abused women’s shelters, animal rescue shelters, friends in need, and to the Stamp Out Hunger drive.
And that isn’t counting the $1092.44 worth of items that were collected by Giselle and Lauren from The Saving Addiction! (Check out their haul here!)
That is a lot of pasta, cereal, deodorant, shampoo, soup, toothbrushes, soap, rice, snacks, and the list goes on, friends.
THANK YOU!
In fact, to give us a better sense of what we accomplished as a couponing community, I made this:
This free slideshow personalized with Smilebox |
(Note: I was unable to use all of the pictures posted. I apologize if yours isn’t here. Everyone’s donation made a difference!)
Ann says
YAY I am so excited at what everyone was able to give! It really is better to give than to receive. We were all able to bless so many people!
GREAT JOB EVERYONE!!!!

Wow! I just watched the video. I only made it half way through. I had to stop, I was crying… just bawling…overcome by and amazed at the generosity of everyone and how you, Kaley, helped us all help so many through your idea and organizing this wonderful event. Thanks again for doing it! You are amazing!
