Opportunity Details
2024 Spring Candy Basket Drive
Volunteers are needed to create spring candy baskets to distribute to Lifting Up Westchester's client families. Both store-bought or handmade are welcome, and volunteers can make up to 30. This is a fantastic group project for small corporate teams and offices, faith groups, families, and classrooms.
Candy basket requirements:
- Include individually wrapped candy or treats (the kids love chocolate!)
- NEW small toy or plush animal (used toys not accepted for hygienic reasons)
- No nuts
- No repackaged bags of food (i.e. do not open a big bag and distribute into smaller bags)
- Please wrap small and medium baskets in cellophane for easier distribution
