Center in the Park seeks gifts for homebound seniors

The holidays can be a lonely time for older adults who may be alone and without family and friends to share in the joys of the season. A modest gift can bring joy to people who are isolated and lonely.

Germantown’s Center in the Park is asking members of the community to contribute new, standard sized bath and body products, such as shower gel, perfumed lotion, hand cream, soap, and body powder.  Contributions of flashlights with batteries, throw blankets, slipper socks with tread, towels and wash cloths would also be appreciated.  These gifts will be given to the Center’s homebound clients.

Contributions should be dropped off at Center in the Park, in Vernon Park at 5818 Germantown Avenue, from now through Friday, December 16th.

For more information, call Courtney White at 215-849-5100.
