UUP member Adee Swanson forwarded this item for us to consider helping with:

From October 24 – November 7, The Petaluma Mother's Club will conduct a product drive to collect the following “like new” and new items on behalf of Project Night Night, a Northern California-based nonprofit organization:

Children's books
blankets
stuffed animals
combs
brushes
lip balm
girls hair bands or clips
toothbrushes

Project Night Night is dedicated to improving the lives of homeless children, one sweet dream at a time. To that end, Project Night Night donates individual tote bags, each filled with an age-appropriate book, a baby blanket, a stuffed animal, and other items in an effort to help homeless children sleep better while in the shelter system.

You can drop off items at the following locations:

Fruit in Motion - 3 4th St
Petaluma Market – 210 Western Avenue
24 Hour Fitness - 6 Petaluma Blvd N
Petaluma Police Dept. - 969 Petaluma Blvd N

At the conclusion of the product drive, The Petaluma Mother's Club will assemble the items into Night Night Packages for distribution to homeless children in Petaluma area shelters.

Project Night Night believes that every child deserves to have his or her nighttime needs met. By providing objects of reliable comfort, Project Night Night seeks to advance the emotional and cognitive well-being of each child it helps. Their Night Night Packages contain the fundamental items of childhood. Every child who receives a Night Night Packages leaves the shelter with a book which encourages reading and family bonding, a security blanket which can be cuddled, and a stuffed animal which can become a cherished friend.
