Our New Assignment

Hi all. POETS (Put On Earth To Serve) has been serving in our community of Costa Mesa, CA through visiting Avalon Senior home, handing out free snacks at a local park, which I love to do with my kids and helping two single moms with 4+ kids that are living in a motel. We are now hoping that you can help us with our next mission. Through the month of August, we are hoping to supply 100+ local school kids with backpacks and supplies that would otherwise go without. This is where you come in. We are asking our friends and family to sponsor a backpack for $30. This would include the backpack and supplies. We are also going to try to get donations from local businesses. We are collecting donations through the month of August and are hoping to distribute the backpacks during the first week of school. The girls and I are most excited to have the stuffing party and hand out the backpacks. Please make your checks out to POETS give them to me or send them to:

POETS: 219 Wellesley Ln., Costa Mesa, CA 92629

Thank you so much for taking the time to join us in our journey to be God's hands and feet here in Costa Mesa. Sincerely, Jaime and Fam

Natalie Biagi is the 3-year-old daughter of Rob and Kathleen Biagi. Rob is a Christian “kids-and-family” singer/songwriter, which our kids LOVE. Little Natalie was diagnosed with Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia (A.L.L.) on October 1, 2007. http://www.nataliebiagi.com/Site/Welcome.html is the website created so you could have detailed updates about Natalie’s treatment and condition, grab a tissue because Rob was just diagnosed with another kind of Leukemia. If you wish to send gift money to help the Biagi Family pay for medical expenses not covered by insurance, you can do one of three things:
