Gift Cards
We are in need of gift cards for adult clients who have received assistance in the last year. We are looking for $25 gift cards for Jewel, Walmart and/or gasoline. This kind of gift is truly fulfilling a need – many of our low-income adults need these to purchase medications and other items.
