Henry's Warriors

10/20/2018

This is Robin West! I am very happy to announce that Blair wants to continue this again! While I will not be lead in it, I will still help her as she needs. She is an amazing woman!

Here is her post:

My friend, Robin West, had and lost her baby boy, Henry James, on January 17, 2013.
In honor of her son the service group “Henry’s Warriors” was created. This served families in need by providing children’s clothing and supplies.
Unfortunately, time and resources became limited and it had to stop serving the community in 2015.

I would like to get Henry’s Warriors going again to serve families in Denton and Collin county. 👋🏻 My name is Blair and God has blessed me with three kiddos (who are 22-years-old, adopted at age 15, 5-years-old, and 1-years-old). I run a small Christian preschool Monday-Thursday and attend and absolutely love Frisco Bible Church!

To apply for assistance, simply go on “Henry’s Warriors” page and copy and paste the questions into a message to fill out.

The following items are needed and would be appreciated:
1. Winter infant and children’s clothing up to a size 12. 🧒🏾👧🏼👶🏽
2. Infant formula. 🍼
3. Large plastic bins for storing sorted items in. 📦
Please message if you have any questions. I’ll need assistance with delivering items to homes in Denton and Collin county for the families who are unable to pick up items.
Drop offs can be made to the porch of Little Christian Learning Center in Savannah (it can be pulled up on the Maps app). 🗺

While we have been still assisting people Henry's warriors will no longer be able to continue. All donations that we have will be going to Frisco Sister Mom project. I cannot continue to do this as I do not have the means to deliver or transport. The page will be shut down. I have continued helping people but have not been able to keep up with everything. It saddens me to shut it down but be assured all your donations will be going to the sister mom group. We have already donated quite a bit to them and others. https://www.facebook.com/groups/327101237469985/

I just wanted to post that we recently had some people call us scam artists and frauds. We take this EXTREMELY personal. We rarely get monetary donations and spend our time, gas and own money to provide formula, clothing and diapers when emergency. It is hard as admins to not take things personal when lies are spread around about us.

We have worked hard to maintain integrity and if someone has an issue with us please be grown up and message us. We don't post everyday and everything we do. We have spent countless hours helping others.

We will help with formula or help with breast feeding if asked. As mentioned before Megan has been certified as a La Leche League Leader but we BOTH know about formula too. We do not force anyone to do anything they don't want to. We are here to help families in true need and everyone cannot be pleased. Feel free to contact us if you need to.

We appreciate your continued support.

Lots of Changes going on Warriors! I first want to remind everyone that we are NOT goodwill or a dump. We have been receiving an abnormally large amount of soiled items. We do this out of the kindness of our hearts and do not get paid for it.

HUGE CHANGE: I want to thank Megan Le for writing up our new application process. To get help you will need to fill out and send in a PRIVATE MESSAGE.If we are helping you currently please fill out and send in to us. We will confirm once we have saved your info. We have over 100 families we have assisted in less than a year. This will help us stay current with messages (WHICH we are now!!!) and divide equally. This stays private.

DEMANDING items instead of asking is rude and does not get you very far with us. We have the right to deny assistance if bullying or harassment of the admins or moderator.

Another HUGE thank you goes out to Blair Buchwald Burnette and her family. She has totally redone how we organize items and helped save my garage. She packages each bag of clothing with love and care. She is also a moderator on the page and will let us know if there are any issues.

We are also proud to announce that our very own, Megan Le is now a La Leche League Leader and can help answer any and all questions about breast feeding as well as give advice for low milk to supply. If you have any questions for her, feel free to message us and direct it towards "Megan". Thank you!

We are in need of some items.

- Storage bins to help keep things nice and organized for ease of access when getting items ready to go out.

- Similac Advance (blue can)
- Similac Sensitive
- Nutriagem

Summer boys and girls clothes sizes 6 months through 4T.
Summer shoes ALL sizes for boy/girls.

We could also take other baby items such as strollers, cribs, pack and play, tummy time mats, shoes, toys, diaper bags, nursing pillows, nursing covers, breast pumps etc...

As always, we NEVER accept the following items:

Recalled items
Underwear, bras, and socks
Broken items
Stained items

We are currently cutting winter clothing off. We are overstocked and out of room. If you wish to donate some please message us and we will take into consideration. .

Thank you so much from our family and hearts

Good Morning Warriors! First I would like to thank all who have donated lately. I know the updates have not been as frequent, but we have had a lot of drop offs and we have had 9 new families.

One specific family we are assisting are trying to get a new start on life. They have a place of their own and a 2 month old little boy. She did not want to ask for help, as she is only worried about her little one, but I do know she needs some items. If you can help please let me know. They need pretty much anything you would use in a kitchen.

Family Assistance:

-Pots and Pans (They have 1)
-Food
-Silverware
-Oven Mitts
-Toaster
-Kitchen Baking Utensils (They have none to cook with)
-Spices
-A Walker for her baby boy
-Similac Advance Powder
-Size 1 Diapers
-Wipes

I know we have an ice storm coming, so I will not be doing any pickups until Tuesday at earliest.

WARRIORS: Time to help a fellow WARRIOR mother out! She has donated to us and others quite a bit. Her 13 year old daughter was hit by a car yesterday. She is a widow and any money will help out with medical bills. If anything please just send positive thoughts to her family.
