In our culture, the trashcan is where we collect our refuse—those unwanted and unclean items that we want to be rid of. For many however, the trashcan represents life—a medium through which daily sustenance is found. In the spirit of the ancient practice of gleaning, in which the leftover crops at the edges of farmers’ fields were left for the poor and the stranger, we’ve reclaimed the trashcan as symbol of hope and given birth to a new initiative: A Trashcan Can Make a Difference (TCMD).
We are starting a TCMD initiative at The Foothills today. For our first month we will be collecting diapers, wipes, bottles and formula for South Valley Pregnancy Center. If you have any other questions please see Craig Littlejohn.
