Thank you neighbors for taking part in our “Keep It Local” Charity Event!

By

Thank you Neighbors, for taking the time to purchase $10 gift cards from our many local shops as gifts for the clients at The Aliveness Project! Already we have contributed almost 100 gifts equaling almost $1000 (which also supports our struggling local stores) to our neighbors living with HIV/AIDS so they can either go purchase something nice for themselves, or a loved one. Our goal is to provide 300 gifts by Friday afternoon, December 11 so they can be used to stuff the gift stockings next weekend so we are well on our way!

Gift cards can be purchased at any local business and brought to the front door of the The Aliveness Project during their regular hours this week. If you want to purchase a gift card but are concerned about making extra trips during this period of COVID precautions, you can also purchase gift cards from the following local businesses on-line, and they will make sure they get delivered to The Aliveness Project in time for the stocking-stuffing!
