FAVE Family Volunteering: Create Thanksgiving Grocery Bundles
Create a custom re-usable grocery bag to be filled with Thanksgiving staples to ensure a bountiful holiday meal for seniors and mothers served by Community Child.
Why: Your volunteer efforts will ensure that women with infants and seniors have Thanksgiving staples to create a meal and they will receive a thoughtful and useful re-usable grocery bag and Thanksgiving card of support. By expressing care along with food, those served through Community Child will feel the spirit and generosity of Thanksgiving.
Who: Community Child is committed to providing homeless women with infants healthy alternatives to abuse, poverty, addictions, and hopelessness. The program offers homeless women and their infants a safe, compassionate, yet structured living environment. At Community Child, women acquire the education, skills training, employment opportunities and support services necessary to break the patterns associated with homelessness.
