St. Gabriels' seventh graders are collecting toiletries this year for the homeless. What an excellent idea for a service project! Couldn't someone use all those small amounts of products which seem to acccumulate in our bathroom drawers? Just think about it: we probably wouldn't want to divulge how many little pots, tubes, jars, bars and bottles of stuff we feel we need to be presentable in the morning. Most of us would agree we could narrow it down to two or three if needed. Now imagine having to carry those three things around with you all day, every day. I know it makes me reassess what I really need. Thank you to the seventh grade for remembering the small, necessary comforts.
