This year, I am personally working with a local nursing home or rehabilitation center with about 300 patients are currently living there. The activities director and I spoke about, whether I can donate signed Christmas cards to the patients. She also mentioned that the patients without families could use Christmas gifts. I asked if I could gather up fleece blankets for these patients and stated that that would truly be a blessing.
Help me bring some joy to the patients at Christmas time, by donating small gifts and throw blankets. Also donate some old Christmas cards and sign them with your name only. Write patient on the front and Christmas on the back. With others helping me, I cannot possibly help all of the patients, so let's make a difference together.
I would love to make their Christmas brighter and full of hope, by giving them something that they truly need like blankets or small gifts. You can also choose to put together a shoe box full of personal stuff like deodorant, toothpaste, body lotion, and other items they may need. If you can help, please contact me for more information about the project the Laugh at Cancer Support Community is getting involved in.
We have until Dec. 15th to get the supplies together, so we can drop them off on Dec 19 th , 2011. Please consider helping me and the local volunteers I have gathered for this project. If you cannot help buy sending items, then you may donate money to my Paypal account. The account information is mamafrog33@att.net , which will be used for buying what we will need to complete the project.
Additionally, the patients love candy and chocolate, so if you can send some that will help out a lot as well. Thank you to all who will be taking the time help with this Holiday's of Hope project. Our support community is not a non \profit, but we are still helping as many families and patients as we can. Send all items to my address:
