I saw Left Coast Bias mention this, so I figured I'd spread the word.
Padres legend Trevor Hoffman is among a group of athletes that will be present at St. Therese's Catholic Church to accept your donations for the Philippine disaster victims.
San Diego Pros team up to help Philippine disaster victims at event in Carmel Valley | Del Mar Times
Donations: Monetary* (checks made out to St. Therese of Carmel); Summer clothing for adults and children (new or gently used); Flip flops; Toiletries – soap, toothpaste/brushes, shampoo; Canned food, Peanut Butter; * $250+ donations are tax deductible and will receive giveaways.
They'll be up there today and tomorrow, November 22 and 23, from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.
Hoffman is there right now (at least he was 2 hours ago) braving the torrential drizzle to encourage you to drop by and drop off some donations. Here's a tweet from Jamie Moyer's wife Kristen.
