For over five years Blinds and More, Inc. has been a drop off location in Osage Beach for Share the Harvest Food Pantry of Greenview and has collected hundreds of items for their patrons.
Going into this holiday season Owner, Joni Walden, decided to be a bit more specific this year. After learning there are 500 children listed who need socks she decided to try and remedy that need. A Kids Sock Drive is currently underway at Blinds and More, Inc. along with sister store Barefoot Floors. The goal is to collect 1,000 pairs of socks so each child gets 2 pair. Any child sizes in any color are being gathered. So as you are out doing your own holiday shopping, grab a couple pair of kids’ socks and drop them off. Or if it is easier you can drop off a donation to one of the stores and they will purchase the socks. Every little bit helps and is appreciated.
Blinds and More, Inc is located at 5509 Osage Beach Pkwy and Barefoot Floors is at 5513 Osage Beach Pkwy, both next to the Osage Beach Post Office. Items can be dropped off between 9am – 5pm, Monday – Friday and 9am – noon on Saturday.
Share the Harvest's Food Pantry's mission is to help feed the hungry. The Food Pantry provides once per month food in a friendly store environment where qualified families can shop for free food that meets their needs and desires. Share the Harvest also operates a Thrift Store that resells donated, quality household items. The Food Pantry is currently serving approximately 1,000 families, 3,500 people each month. This equals distribution of 100,000 lbs. of food each month. Share the Harvest Food Pantry & Thrift Store is located at 689 North State Highway 7 (N. Hwy. 7 & EE Junction- Greenview).
