100 tote pilot goal
$50 sponsors 1 tote
Local church community care
Inside each tote
- Hygiene and baby care items
- Comfort items and small toys
- Journals, pens, and Bibles
- Handwritten encouragement notes
Every tote is packed with care so a child receives more than supplies — they receive a reminder that they are seen, valued, and loved.
Our mission
Love that is practical, personal, and ready when a child needs it.
Totes of L.O.V.E. stands for Love Overcomes Virtually Everything. This project brings together sewers, donors, churches, volunteers, and community partners to create handmade care totes for displaced children in Angelina County.
Our goal is simple: provide a child with immediate comfort and basic essentials during one of the hardest transitions of their life.
