Stuffing Comfort

Little things do matter. Take a Red Cross comfort kit. It consists of shampoo, toothbrush, washcloth, and other toiletry essentials. These are small things that add up to big comfort after disaster.

Recently, Minneapolis-based Wells Fargo employees helped make more than 300 comfort kits that Red Cross volunteers will give to families affected by home fires, flooding, and other disasters.

Helping out like this is a darn cool thing to do for your community. Thank you, Wells Fargo, for stuffing a bit of comfort for when people need it the most.

Others can help too by shopping the 2011 Red Cross Holiday Giving Catalog.

One thought on “Stuffing Comfort”

  1. As a DAT (Disaster Action Team) volunteer member, I place these Red Cross Comfort Kits in the hands of those affected by a disaster. It is unfortunate, that you can not see the pleasurable response on the faces of the adults and particularly the children upon receiving this gift.

    Thank you so much for YOUR gift of giving.
