Recently we were able to deliver clothing to 30 residents at a Winston-Salem nursing home. We set the items up according to size on tables and the residents were able to pick what they wanted. We wanted to give them a “shopping experience” because the never leave the nursing home.
We are currently accepting items for the Silver Stocking Project. The current drop location is 2513 Neudorf Road, Clemmons, NC. As always we need the following:
Body Powder
Lotion
Lip Balm
Socks
Blankets
For more information call 766-1211 or 766-7877.
We are getting ready for our Valentine’s Day visit next month. If you or your group would like to volunteer to visit, please contact us.
We need 150 more gift bags to place items in. If you know of a company that might be willing to donate the bags please call 336-766-1211.
Start a new Christmas Tradition: Volunteer to deliver gifts and your precious time to lonely residents at a nursing home. Don a Santa hat and spread some joy. If you would like to set a time to volunteer Sunday, Monday or Tuesday, please call 336.766.1211.
Also, keep in mind we will need volunteers for Valentine’s Day, Summer, and Fall.
