At YWCA, we are starting our Holiday Bundles of Joy drive! Our Bundles of Joy include essentials and other gifts that bring joy to our seniors. Would you consider hosting a donation drive for our homebound friends?
YWCA programs and services support our community’s most vulnerable populations. Our More Than A Meal, in particular, empower and dignify older adults in Glendale through much more than a meal. Many of our home-bound seniors are isolated and have no family support or support system. Our programs provide a lifeline allowing our seniors to age in place. Last year we were able to give every single older adult in our programs a gift!
The goal is to have all items back to the YWCA Glendale Center by Friday, December 8 th.
Shampoo
Conditioner
Bar Soap/Soap
Lotion
Toothpaste
All we ask is that all donated items be new, unwrapped, and delivered to Senior Center in Glendale (8561 N 61st Ave. Glendale AZ 85302)
Help us take care of homebound seniors!Also check out our amazon wish list:
