Make Winter Special for Seniors
Imagine that feeling of snuggling into bed after washing your sheets. New and clean sheets make an incredible difference in feeling comfortable, cozy, and warm on a cool winter evening. Many older adults that we serve are low-income and do not have the resources to purchase new sheets. Caregivers have shared that their clients are sleeping on threadbare sheets that have not been replaced in years.
This holiday season we are collecting 1,300 new queen size bedsheets for older adults and people with disabilities. Any abundance of donated sheets will be distributed to people in need across our programs, including people exiting homelessness, new refugee arrivals, and children in foster care. Your gift of new sheets preserves the dignity and respect of our neighbors. Gift cards to Walmart are also welcome so that we can buy special gifts as needed.
Donations delivered before December 13th will be distributed as gifts to clients in time for Christmas. We recognize that there are delays in shipping and production right now, and will gladly continue to distribute gifts for weeks to come! Your gift of bedsheets delivers comfort and love to neighbors who truly deserve it. Thank you.
