SUMMARY:Windsor Basketeers Campaign
DESCRIPTION:OUR 2026 CAMPAIGN IS ON!\nTragically\, domestic violence continues to be on the rise\, and abused and compromised women need people to care about them more than ever! If you are looking for a meaningful way to help\, Windsor Basketeers offers a loving and giving pathway to help give women much-needed items—providing the hope and encouragement they deserve. \nWindsor Basketeers has transitioned to asking donors to use lidded storage totes instead of laundry baskets. Totes are easier to store and transport. \nPlease help us reach our goal of 42 totes\, which will be gratefully received by women who rely on Hiatus House to help them leave violent relationships and transition from the shelter to a new\, safe home. \nREGISTER YOUR TOTE!\nPlease register your tote on our main website (http://basketeers.org/baskets/register) so we know it’s coming. \nFILL YOUR TOTE!\nPreparing a gift tote of items can be a wonderful family or group experience. Fill a lidded tote with whatever YOU think someone would love! Its contents will provide much-needed items\, and your efforts will offer help when it means the most. \nHere are a few tips for putting together your own tote: \n\n Only new or unused items please.\n Please attach an itemized list to the outside of your tote.\n No sized clothing please.\n No personal care items or toiletries please.\n No food or beverages\, please.\n\nDon’t know what to put in your tote? \n\nKitchen item ideas: cutlery\, dishes\, glasses\, pot\, fry pan\, dish rack\, dish towels\, oven mitts\, cutlery tray\, bakeware\, can opener\, potato peeler\, spatula\, stirring spoon\, ladle\, measuring cups/spoons\, storage containers/bags\, coffee maker\, kettle\, toaster\, etc.\nBathroom item ideas: towels\, wash cloths\, bath mat\, tub safety mat\, shower curtain/liner\, plunger\, wastebasket\, hair dryer\, organizers\, first aid kit\, nail kit\, etc.\nBedroom item ideas: twin sheet set\, twin comforter\, blanket\, pillow\, hangers\, sewing kit\, side-table lamp\, alarm clock\, small rug\, etc.\nGeneral item ideas: 3m hooks\, journal\, tool kit (screw driver\, hammer\, etc.)\, Swiffer cleaning tools/duster\, microfibre cloths\, etc.\nPlease also include a loving note to provide a warm hug!\n\nEven a small selection of items can make a BIG difference! \nDROP OFF YOUR TOTE!\nDrop-off date:         Saturday\, November 21\, 2026 \nTime:                       9:30 a.m. – 12 noon \nPlace:                      The Safety Village\, 7911 Forest Glade Drive (Windsor) \n\nI launched the Windsor chapter of Basketeers because I wanted to help our community\, and I am absolutely overwhelmed by your generosity and golden hearts and am committed to keeping this annual initiative focused and strong! \nI invite you to join me and others in standing behind brave women on their journey to a new beginning. \nFor information regarding e-gift options for donation*\, as well as additional information about how to put together a tote\, please email windsor@basketeers.org  . \nWith warm regards\, \nMary-Ann Stark\, Rotary Club of Canada South\, Windsor Basketeers Project Lead \n*Please note Basketeers is not a registered charity.
