PROOF IN COMMENTS. Apologies for breaking rules earlier.
So I run a nonprofit for individuals in need in my community. Saw a company advertising that they give away 1 pair of socks for every pair sold. I send an email and ask for as many as we can get. Shoot for the moon right?
They ask for an address, my brain panics and gives the one I’m most primed to provide: my Grammys, since she raised me and I know she has a double garage.
So it’s been about a week and I don’t hear anything, forget about it and move on. Until today when I get an email, there are donating 200 boxes of socks and they were shipped yesterday!
So many conflicting emotions. One on hand, I’m so excited to receive a donation this big. We are a very small org so this is a big deal. On the other hand, I’m hoping my Grammy doesn’t get barricaded into her house by boxes of socks 😂
Currently waiting to see if there is any tracking info available so my friends and I can rent a Uhaul to move them all to storage. Ofc there’s also rain coming in our area the next few days 🤦♀️
TL;DR asked for a donation for my community nonprofit and got more than I could have imagined-didn’t know until AFTER they shipped them all to my grandmoms house.
