Boxes of Hope
The elderly in our community are so important. They have great stories and wisdom to share. They’ve lived a full life and taken care of us so as people age it is important that we, in turn, take time to visit and care for them.
Boxes of Hope are is one way you can share some hope and encouragement with the elderly in our community even if you don’t know them all!
