Gifts of the Heart


Gifts of the Heart, while especially crucial during the holiday season, is a year-round program to ensure that every adult in our care who lives by themselves, has no involved family, and runs the risk of being alone on birthdays or seasonal holidays will not be forgotten. Recipients of these gifts include adults with developmental disabilities, mental illness or HIV, people recovering from addiction, and the elderly.
How to participate in Gifts of the Heart:
Hold a gift drive at your organization, collecting small, thoughtful, unwrapped gifts. Good gift ideas are hats, scarves, gloves, socks, blankets and throws, foot warmers, toiletries, perfume, picture frames, and large-print books. Or, if you want to help and don't have time to shop...
Donate here and your contribution will help to ensure that we are able to bring a smile to everyone in our care on special days throughout the year.
