On Nov. 15 Salon 206 in Carlyle hosted a Customer Appreciation Night and asked anyone attending to bring a Shoebox full of goodies for the Shoebox Project. After attending Creative Tables in Arcola this past October, we learned about the Shoebox Project which is a mission to provide Christmas presents for women in shelters. The numbers were shocking how many women in our province alone have ran to find safety at women’s shelters. This was a fun way to give back to woman in our own province and it’s comforting to know that we alone have collected well of 50 shoeboxes. This means 50 women will have something to smile about just from the donations of our own community. Salon 206 and Merit Ford will be collecting shoeboxes until Dec. 5. Stop into either one of our businesses to inquire what goes in a Shoebox. Thanks to everyone who has supported.
