    Description

    AHC is collecting holiday gift bags for teens and senior citizens living at our affordable housing properties! We are also looking for people to make holiday cards for senior citizens.

    You will purchase the items and decorate & assemble the bags at your own location and schedule.

    We will collect gifts the second week of December so we can give them out before the holidays. We have some flexibility so please ask before signing up so we can work out an alternative delivery option.

    For this project, you will:

    1. Purchase or collect items. Specific suggestions on the Sign-up Genius.
    2. Decorate the gift bags and/or make cards for the bags. Our residents celebrate many winter holidays, so please use seasonal decorations and messages.
    3. Assemble the gift bags with 3-5 items each. Please do not overfill the bags so we can be fair when distributing them.
    4. Please feel free to email volunteer@ahcinc.org with questions.
