Donations and Volunteers Needed to

Brighten Up the Holiday Season for a Senior!

Each year SOME depends on the generosity of folks like you to donate holiday baskets to low income seniors and families in the District.

WHAT GOES IN EACH BASKET:

1. 2 cans sweet potatoes

2. 2 cans of string beans (low sodium if possible)

3. 1 box of stuffing mix

4. 1 box of instant mashed potatoes

5. 2 cans of gravy

6. 1 can of cranberry sauce

7. 2 cans of fruit cocktail

8. 2 bottles of 100% juice (non-refrigerated)

9. 2 boxes of macaroni and cheese

10. A vessel to carry the food (this can be a new reusable shopping bag, a basket, or even a decorated cardboard box - whatever your imagination comes up with!)

Many of our seniors struggle to meet their nutritional and personal needs throughout the year. If, in addition to a basket, you would like to donate a gift card, SOME will use the gift cards to assist tour Seniors in meeting these needs.

SOME will provide meat for each basket.

Suggested optional items include: A signed greeting card, holiday table cloth, plates and cups, a bow

Gather your family, friends, and co-workers together to make up a Holiday Dinner Basket for a SOME Senior. It’s easy and you’ll get lots of joy knowing you’ve made the holiday brighter for a neighbor in need.

Bring the completed baskets to Kuehner House: 1667 Good Hope Road, SE Washington DC.
