Hi Ridgewood,
I’m helping with a Holiday event at Bergen Regional hospital. Many (sadly most) of the elderly residents have no family and very few comforts. I’m collecting items to bring to make life a little better.
I spoke to the manager, we could really use these items for residents, male and female, ages 60-90:
NEW:
Socks
Underware
Bras (many female residents have none)
Throw blankets for the beds
Make up
Jewelry (can be dollar store stuff)
Headphones
Hairbrushes
Sweatpants/sweatshirts
Nightgowns
Are you upgrading your TV? Consider donating your old one, the facility supplies cable but residents need their own TV, many residents have nothing to watch in their rooms.
My address is 365 Gilbert St. I’ll put a rattan box on the porch or will come pick up stuff. Please share, and thank you!!
(I’m happy to do the shopping if anyone wants to donate gift cards as well).
ALL DONATIONS MUST BE RECEIVED BY DECEMBER 15th
