Schmidt recently opened up her bakery, Delice Bakehouse, this year and is now using her business platform as a force multiplier for bringing help to those in need.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Once the community started to know that we were doing this, they all felt like they wanted to be involved,&#8221; Schmidt said. The bakery is currently seeking donations of blankets, jackets, clothing, shoes, and gently used toys, especially with the cold weather and Christmas approaching. They also welcome materials like old tents and tarps to help protect homes from the elements.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Christmas is coming!

I&#8217;m very blessed, and God has never let me down. There&#8217;s no reason why a kid should go hungry or be cold if I have hundreds of blankets sitting in my closet.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The bakery will continue collecting donations throughout the month and invites the community to join them every Sunday to help deliver the items. <\/p>\n<p>For more information, interested individuals can send a message to the bakery.<\/p>\n<p>RECOMMENDED: <a href=\"https:\/\/kfoxtv.com\/newsletter-daily\/legal-jargon-jury-duty\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Legal Jargon: El Paso Attorney talks all things Jury Duty<\/a><\/p>\n<p>RECOMMENDED: <a href=\"https:\/\/kfoxtv.com\/news\/local\/holiday-pet-safety-tips-keep-your-furry-friends-safe-this-season\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Bark on Arc: Keep your furry friends safe this Christmas<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/kfoxtv.com\/sign-up\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Sign up<\/a> to receive the top interesting stories from in and around our community once daily in your inbox.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"El Paso, TX (KFOX14\/CBS4) \u2014 EL PASO, Texas (KFOX14\/CBS4) \u2014What started as a family effort to give back&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":91980,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[12],"tags":[138,140,139],"class_list":["post-92422","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-el-paso","tag-el-paso","tag-el-paso-headlines","tag-el-paso-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/92422","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=92422"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/92422\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/91980"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=92422"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=92422"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=92422"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
