All Wrapped Up - Still Time to Help


The Volunteer Center of Bergen County's "All Wrapped Up" holiday giving program is in full swing!  We've received requests from nonprofit agencies to help 3,500 people.  We’ve been busy matching donors with people in need, but we still have a long way to go.  More than 250 individuals and 300 families still need to be matched with donors. 

 
Individuals, families, civic groups, corporations and business associations are encouraged to "adopt" an individual or a family in need.
 
Requested items include such basics as winter coats, warm sweaters, slippers, or books and toys for children. Gift cards for supermarkets and discount department stores are on everyone's list, too.
 
To help, sign up online. We'll match you with an individual or family and email their profile back to you within 24 hours.
 
Call Debbie at 201-489-9454, ext. 118 for further information.
 
Times are tough, so please do whatever you can to help our neighbors right here in Bergen County!
