BEYOND OURSELVES                                                 Marlene Hofer, marlenehofer@comcast.net


         Our next meeting for Beyond Ourselves will take place at the PGICA on Wednesday, December 20, at 10. Please come
         and hear about our future plans. It’s also a great time to join us if you are not a member yet. Membership dues for 2018
         are only $10. Please make your check out to “Beyond Ourselves” and give it to Jeanne Gehrt, Treasurer.

         Save products for the Shoe Box Event: All PGICA members are
         invited to save personal items such as deodorant, shaving creams,
         socks, toothpaste, tissues, toothbrushes, hair brushes, combs,
         washcloths, etc. We make up boxes for women, so any women’s
         hygiene products, and we make up boxes for children, so children’s

         hygiene products, barrettes, etc. Through December 12 you will be
         able to drop these items off, along with non-perishable food and
         shoe boxes at the PGICA. We have 100 empty boxes waiting to be
                                                  filled. For questions,
