The Donation Box for 12-14 Wraps Up Our Year
We came up a little short of our goal of $7000 this year, but not by much. The donation box for 12-14 was our last one for 2013. We’re heading back to CR this week so we made this donation a biggy. This was a combo of items purchased in the last two weeks plus a few items from our stockpile. We probably could have made the goal if we had one more week but we’re happy with what we did.
It’s amazing what couponing has done for our contributions! We hope all of you out there have had a chance to feel the satisfaction of helping someone who has hit hard times. If not, just pick up and extra great deal in your next couponing trip. Donate and see if it doesn’t put a smile on your face ..and in your heart!

If you’re new and/or not familiar with what The Donation Box is, this is a box we keep in a corner of our house that we add items to all week for a Saturday morning delivery to the local Co-op Ministries . Since we’ve been couponing, we have grown a nice stockpile of items so now we try to put some aside and do our small part to help others. (You can view our other delivery posts here ). Other than a little extra time, there is no reason for us to pass up a free or ridiculously cheap deal… we know someone needs those items! Our boxes usually include a combination of things we purchased the current week and items from our stockpile that we have overstocked. We hope we inspire others to do the same!
Whether it’s a donation of money, time, or items.. it all matters to someone!
