Nancy Sarno de los Rio's from:

Nancy, a truly amazing woman started a most worthy cause called, "One Stop Donation" (OSDD). www.donationdrop.org

"We know some people who could really use your unwanted items. You probably know them too, beca
use they're your neighbors." Nancy said with a tear in her eye. She went on to explain how these items went to needy and battered women and children. Toys donated made Christmas dreams come true. Anyone only had to listen for a minute or two to realize this is a woman with passion for a dream. And, what an dream! Nancy will be featured in Woman Day Magazine this month and hopes to see her vision followed throughout the USA and Canada.
