    Advocate

  • “It was so heartfelt going through all the different rooms and choosing items for the individuals to help them feel special when they receive the bag. Thank you so much for what you are doing in the community. ”

    Volunteers from Uni Care

  • "We were going through a tough time, and the clothes, toiletries, and hygiene products we received came as a true blessing. These essentials have made a significant difference in our lives, helping us maintain our dignity and self-esteem during a challenging period."

    R.H., Client

  • "Our clients have been so excited about the donations, and we were truly amazed by the amount and the great condition of the clothing items provided."

    Case Manager, Lifeline Community Services

  • "It was heartfelt to walk through each room, carefully choosing items to help individuals feel special. The love and care from your team, especially Lacy and Jonathan, was evident every step of the way. We loved hearing that the bags are purple to help recipients feel like royalty — a sentiment that beautifully aligns with our mission in hospice care."
