Are you looking to make someone’s holiday brighter and earn a few service hours in the process? Why not make holiday cards for our New Lenox nursing home residents?
Kits are now available at the Adult & Teen Services desk on the 2nd floor while supplies last. Each kit has fun materials to make holiday cards, but you are also free to use your own supplies too. For every four cards you create, you will earn one service hour. We can give you a MAXIMUM of two service hours for eight completed cards.
If we run out of kits, you are still welcome to make holiday cards using your own supplies.
sample card pictures have been provided for guidance in the instructions, but feel free to be creative! Your cards don't need to be professional; just make them with love and they will be perfect. Only neatly done cards will earn service hours, so do your best!
We ask you to please bring your volunteer forms to the Adult & Teen Services desk when you drop off your cards, and we will sign your paperwork. Please return all cards to the Adult & Teen Services desk by Thursday, December 19, 2024.
