    Friends of Faith

    Hello!

    I just wanted to let you all know that we are doing a book drive in memory of my daughter Faith Grace Miles for her birthday this year. We are collecting new and gently used books to donate to possibly several places depending on the number of books we get. We are looking into donating to the family center at the University of Michigan Mott's Childrens Hospital, the Ronald McDonald House of Ann Arbor, or the local library where Steve and I grew up.

    Books can be shipped or if you dislike the post office gift cards to Barnes and Noble or Amazon.com are welcome.

    Here is the address you can ship them to:

    Amy Miles
    2275 Fawnwood Dr. SE
    Kentwood, MI 49508

    If you send a mixture of new and used books, put a little note in as to which ones are new. I think that the hospital may only be able to accept new books, but we are still looking into that one.


    Thanks soooo much!

    Each book will have a sticker with her name on it and a raspberry colored butterfly stamp inside.
