Dear Neighbor:

 

As your neighbor, I’m reaching out with a hopeful heart and a simple request.

 

Our city has been deeply impacted by the recent tornado, and now—more than ever—St. Louis needs the strength and generosity of its surrounding communities. We’re collecting cleaning supplies to support tornado relief efforts, and we’d love for our subdivision to come together in this time of need.

 

If you’re able, please consider donating items such as disinfectants, gloves, mops, buckets, Toilet paper, masks, hand sanitizer, disinfectant wipes, bleach, paper towels, etc. Every contribution makes a difference, even if it is just one item. We’re asking for all donations to be gathered by (Weekday) (Date).

You can drop it at my front porch at (Your Address) or call me to pick it up from your place.

 

You can learn more about Compassionate St. Louis by visiting our website — Compassionate-StL.org.

 

Together, we can help restore homes, comfort hearts, and show that compassion truly begins next door.

 

With gratitude,
