🌟 Celebrating Service at One of Our Clients’ Retirement Celebrations 🌟 At one of our clients’ retirement celebrations, we had the special opportunity to turn gratitude into action through two meaningful service projects that will touch lives within our community. 💙 Warrior Bags for Oncology Patients – Alomere Health Together, we assembled Warrior Bags for patients beginning Chemotherapy or Radiation at Alomere Health. Each bag included thoughtful comfort items: A warm blanket, Water bottle, Mints, Chapstick, Chocolates, and a code to receive groceries or gas. These bags are distributed to individuals starting their treatment journey, offering a reminder that they are supported and not alone. 🙏 Care Bags for Men Entering Teen Challenge - Provided by the Non-Profit - Sharing Love and Hope We also packed care bags for men entering Teen Challenge, offering encouragement as they begin their path toward recovery. Each bag contained: Hygiene essentials, Blanket, Socks, Candy, Bible, and a devotional. These gifts were created to share hope, dignity, and support with those stepping into a new chapter. ✨ A Night Filled With Purpose It was a beautiful way to honor a milestone by giving back. Thank you to everyone who contributed their time, heart, and energy to make these projects possible. Your kindness reaches far beyond the celebration itself.
