Dear Friends, 

 

We would like to invite you to be part of one of our End-of-the-Year Projects:

​

Project #1 – Create Greeting Cards for Thanksgiving & Christmas to be dropped off at nursing homes

 

- The cards must be written in English and they should be able to stand up if placed on a table, nightstand, etc

- Sentiments that imply that the recipient’s circumstances are less than ideal (e.g., "Cheer Up!", "You are not forgotten", etc.) should be avoided.

- The Thanksgiving cards should be placed in the mail by November 15, and the Christmas cards should be placed by December 10

Send the cards to:

Reunion Court of Kingwood

The Holiday Project

Attn: Donna Martin

929 Rockmead Dr.

Kingwood, TX  77339

​

Project #2 - Create a small gift bag with handmade items to say a “Special Thank You” to teachers, administrators and schools

 

 - We will also provide breakfast to the school staff on the day of delivery. The school chosen was Briargate Elementary School (FBISD with 74 employees).

- Some of the gift items will be: handmade cloth masks, hand washing soap decorated with Christmas theme, a keychain (“Thank you for helping me Grow”) and a hot chocolate stirring spoon.

- Here is the link for the Sign-Up genius where you can help provide the items or make the items: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0D4AA8AC2CA5FEC70-projeto
