Pre-Christmas note

Here are excerpts from an e-mail I sent to a supporter this week; I can't seem to find the time to update our blog, so I'll take the lazy way out.


Dear *****,

I thought I'd take a moment to share with you what we at Hilarious Givers have been up to. Remember the store inventory you helped pack up and load onto a bobtail? Tens of thousands of dollars worth of kid's clothes, grown-up clothes, kitchen items, toys and the rest have been sitting on pallets in boxes waiting to be sorted. Debra organized a group of ladies (and a couple of guys) on Saturday to sort all that precious gift in preparation for Christmas. We will be able to supplement the Christmas outreach of several local churches by providing gifts of needed clothing and the rest. I have attached a few photos of this weekend's activities.

This has been a weekend filled with His grace. We distributed a 53-foot truckload of mattresses to orphanages within our Mexico ministry from a warehouse recently so generously donated to us. Somewhere near 500 mattresses have passed through those doors on 30th street since we got the keys last month, and about 300 more are coming from Holland America Line before year's end. And as if that's not enough, Princess Cruises is donating an additional 100 mattresses; we received the first 50 on Saturday and expect the remaining 50 this week. I fully expect that we will have provided more than 1,000 comfy mattresses to deserving kids and their families before Christmas. What a blessing! None of this would have happened but for the generosity of our selfless donors. Hundreds of deserving kids are now sleeping on comfy mattresses instead of cardboard on the dirt. Praise God!

The need is unrelenting. The generosity of our donors is limitless. We feel so blessed, so gifted, to be able the be the hand of God in this endeavor, and to have been introduced to many who have had a part in making it all possible. Over and over I feel overwhelmed, fail to see the solution to problems presented, and ultimately surrender the problem to God . And over and over someone like you sees the need and steps up. The ultimate earthly reward is to see the gratitude in the faces of the kids we serve; I pray daily for the ultimate heavenly reward - to hear the words "Well done, good and faithful servant!" Bless you and the continued success of your business.

Ladies, Ladies, Ladies…

Hilarious Givers has a deal for you!

We have an Opportunity for you to Serve, Fellowship and Help those less fortunate in a third world country, without leaving the comfort of the United States.

The holidays are coming up and a generous donor has donated the entire inventory of his store to Hilarious Givers. In his offering there are new shirts, slippers, toothbrushes, undies, school supplies, . . ...

Think of this as an opportunity to go shopping and give gifts without spending any money! And, an opportunity to get together with old friends and to make new ones. Your giving of your time will help to enrich the lives of kids this Christmas in a way that cannot happen without your selfless sacrifice of a couple of hours’ time on Saturday morning.

We will be opening boxes of Christmas treasures, sorting the contents by age and sex, and preparing to distribute these items to churches and groups who will be sponsoring Christmas Fiestas this Christmas Season.

If you have folding tables we can use to sort on, please bring them along. If you have folding tables but can't make it, and would like to let us borrow them...let's talk to make arrangements so we can borrow them.

Have Questions??? Please feel free to contact Debra or Judd…

Thank You!

P. S. If you feel guilty about the ‘shopping without spending money’ thing, Hilarious Givers could use your financial support, especially during this special season. Your tax-deductible donations are sincerely appreciated.

Distributing food and mattresses this Saturday morning, October 30,

Hilarious Givers


We will be distributing food and mattresses this Saturday morning, October 30, starting at 8:30. We hope to be finished early - please plan to pick up before 10:00.

Please note that Mexican authorities are no longer accepting our documents to cross the border. This means that either you have to have an arrangement to cross the food or you have to pay duty at the border. Please give this some thought before you place your request.

We will be distributing the following items on Saturday:

10 Cases 'Manna Pack' enriched rice and soy meals (36 pouches, 6 servings per pouch)

3 pails of dried fruit (Peaches, cherries)

9 cases assorted canned vegetables (no labels)

10 bags dehydrated vegetable soup (from Gleanings for the Hungry - mix 10:1 with water)

1 case face masks (cold and flu season is coming!)

Each load is approximately 700-800 pounds.

We also have mattresses, both full-size and twin to distribute. If you don't want food, just mattresses, or if you have questions, please e-mail me at Judd@HilariousGivers.org

Please go to our website http://www.hilariousgivers.org/ , click on the link (or paste it into your browser's address window) to place your request for food.

The food pickup will be at our warehouse at 9340 Cabot Drive, San Diego, CA 92126

We appreciate your time and thank you for all you do for the kids!

On His path,

Mattresses! And more mattresses!

We just confirmed another delivery of mattresses from Holland America Line for Saturday. And a generous donor has provided a warehouse near the border - no cost, no strings, except we need to show evidence of liability and property insurance. Of course, we don't have any. We really haven't had a need up until now, but now we need it. NOW. So if anyone has an inside track to a couple of months' of business liability and property loss insurance, now would be the time to let us know!
Saturday is going to be a big day. We're praying for some help for a couple of hours to unload a truck and move 120+ mattresses into our newly-acquired warehouse in South Bay. Give us a call if you can help.

Hilarious Givers: We are, once again, the beneficiaries of nearly new mattresses from a luxury cruise ship!

NEWS FLASH...

Friends of Hilarious Givers,

We are, once again, the beneficiaries of nearly new mattresses from a luxury cruise ship!

The last shipment of mattresses were a huge success; many of you have been praying for more because we just ran out of mattresses. Well, He is sufficient. We have been Blessed and given more.

Next Saturday, and every Saturday for the next few weeks, we will receive a truckload of about 100 mattresses. These are mattresses that have been in use since early this summer. We don't know for sure the pickup location for you - we're still in the process of making those arrangements.  About 10 mattresses will fit in a pickup or van - the last time the duty was about $10 U.S. per mattress to cross the border.

We need to know if you are going to pick up Mattresses (somewhere in the San Diego area.) If this week will not work, let me know and we'll set aside mattresses for a future Saturday. I need a count for this week ( 10-23-2010 ) ASAP.

E-mail me at Judd@HilariousGivers.org - please include your name and the name of your mission and how many mattresses you can use. If you are not picking up this Saturday, tell me which Saturday you will be available.
We appreciate your time and thank you for all you do!

On His path,

Judd and Debra Wheeler
