What To Know
A Plano resident with Crohn’s disease is organizing a donation drive to assemble and deliver GI comfort kits to Hope Restored Missions, which serves people experiencing homelessness. Community members can buy items from an Amazon wish list; donations are sanitized, assembled into kits (about $10 each), and delivered to the organization.
The drive runs through Aug. 30 and the charity is prepared to receive the kits.
