The Findlay based group which calls themselves the Bag Ladies is in severe need of blankets.

The group, which has been active approximately 13 years, takes cloth and blanket donations and, in turn, creates sleeping bags for the impoverished. The group says that currently they are out of blankets, and as a result, in severe need of donations.

To donate a blanket, the public may drop their items off at the United Methodist Church in Findlay at anytime.

For more information, contact Carol Siempelkamp at 756-3401.
