Stuff to stuff envelopes! Every Wednesday morning an assembly line of around 80 volunteers dedicated volunteers gather at the Culver City Adult Center to complete projects for non-profits. No job is too big or too small – they’ve done everything from folding 250 flyers to creating more than 5,000 party favors! Caveat: you have to bring your “stuff” to Culver City Tuesday afternoon or Wednesday morning before 9 a.m. and then pick it up when they're finished (usually 1 p.m. at the latest). Contact: Jill at jill.thomsen@culvercity.org. Update: CCAD have already had two takers from theBIGlist, but would love more! And note: We've added them to the "Stuff offered" section because they're offering a great service! |

Planter Boxes and Soil! Hannah's Herbs was started by a 13-year girl in an admirable effort to fight hunger. They grow herbs, and then work with SOVA and Netiya, and then distribute them to poor and hungry (and grateful!) people. The youth group at Messiah Baptist Church is helping with this great program and they need 10 24 x 8 x 8 planter boxes -- enough to hold 5 mature herbs. (They can go smaller, but not bigger.) They also need enough soil to fill them.
