    Description

    Giving Back for the Holidays - Sew Thanksgiving Table Runners and Placemats for Patients & Their Families

    The holidays make us want to give back. At Samaritan, no special skills are required; just share your heart and enrich your life.

    Help brighten our hospice families' Thanksgiving by making runners or placemat sets for their holiday table. We appreciate you sharing your talent!!!

    The story...

    In 2000, our teen volunteers came up with the idea to bring fully prepared meals, table items, and a decoration to allow the families more time together on what may be their last holiday, and most likely their last Thanksgiving together, rather than worrying about cooking.

    We invite you to participate in this beautiful event by creating table runners in fall patterns/colors. Make as many or as few as you like. Size requested is 48" long x 12" wide. Placemat sets of 2 are also welcome.

    • *Donations are due to our office, 3906 Church Rd., Mount Laurel, NJ by November 15th.**

    Office hours: Mon-Fri, 8:30a-4:30p

    Thank you for bringing some joy to Samaritan's patients and families!!
