🎁 Help Make the Holidays Feel Like Home! 🎄💙
The holidays are approaching, and we’re getting ready for the St. John Center Holiday Mart at Sheehan Landing!
Our Holiday Mart gives residents the opportunity to select gifts and special items for themselves during the holiday season—and we need our community’s help to make it special!
We’re looking for donations of new, unwrapped gifts, including cozy blankets, pajamas, slippers, personal care items, household essentials, gift cards, games, snacks, and other items that can bring a little extra joy this holiday season.
Your generosity provides more than a gift—it provides choice, dignity, and the feeling of home. 🏠✨
🎄 Want to donate, host a collection drive, or get your company involved?
Contact Ashley Murray, Director of Mission Advancement
📧 amurray@stjohncenter.org
Thank you for helping make the holidays brighter for our Sheehan Landing residents! 💙
People. Housing. Hope.
Happy Birthday, October babies! Use your birthday as an occasion for friends to donate to SJC instead of birthday gifts! Start a birthday fundraiser on Facebook or Instagram. Learn more here. buff.ly/49NG6Rt
