My sister is running really low on baby clothes for her charity and is appealing to anyone who is able to donate gently used (or new) baby clothes. She has a kind hearted American who has offered to collect and sort the clothes on her behalf, so if you do have anything you would like to send, please send to:
Send to BB c/o Mrs Dawnielle California, 1414
Cherry Valley Drive, San Jose, CA 95125
Read about the clothes drive here and here. If you are from another part of the world, please contact her directly to discuss how you might get your baby clothes to her.
I sent 8 of these onesie 5-packs to Dawnielle. It's only $5 for the 5-pack of onesies - what a great deal! If other readers are looking for easy ways to donate even on a small budget, this is a great option (and shipping is less than $1 per pack):

Thanks Tertia, kind hearted American-ish! Hope Mel gets lots of clothes!

Have a little one just outgrowing this size. She grew so fast that most things were only worn once (some not at all). Glad to know they can be of use. Have a box all ready to go. Dawnielle, it should arrive next Tuesday or Wednesday, thanks for coordinating!

i'm sorry this is totally unrelated to this post but i'm too lazy to sign back in to facebook or my email right now. any chance you feel like posting about thabo mbeki's resignation this week? ya know, cause all of us across the pond are uber-obsessed with our presidential race and bail-outs and everything else america-centered and it might do us all some good to remember that the rest of the world has some of their own goings-on too.
you're the best tertia! air smooches!!

Great article Troy - ties into other things you've said about good advertising NOT appealing to everyone. You have to know your target and speak to them, not try to appease everyone.
