Holiday care packages hand-delivered with love

Over the winter holidays and on Valentine’s Day, our staff and volunteers safely delivered "Thinking of you" packages to all our clients, so they would know we are here for them during this challenging time. Our Christmas package included a fresh loaf of bread, homemade soup, and tea, among other goodies, and on Valentine's Day we dropped by each client's home with flowers. Our Client Service Coordinator and volunteers checked in regularly with our clients to see how they were faring during the pandemic.
