MLK DAY OF SERVICE

Martin Luther King Day of Service

The current challenges we are facing are unique, but there are still ways to help our
Breathing Room families affected by cancer and Covid on
Monday, January 16.

BRF Service Opportunities

Breakfast Food Donations:
We are in need of breakfast foods to add to our BRF Care packages.  The following items are in demand for our families: cereal, pancake mix with syrup, fruit cup, oatmeal packets, breakfast/granola bar, boxes of raisins, peanut butter, jelly, 100% fruit juice and hot chocolate packets. Feel free to add your child’s favorites to your donation. 

Valentine “Share the Love” Program:
Create handmade Valentine cards or crafts to share with our families in February.
Deadline for your Valentines is Monday, February 6.

BRF Comfort Bags:
Our BRF Comfort Bags contain a variety of useful, practical items that our BRF recipients have found helpful during their treatments and medical appointments. These bags are easy to assemble at home. Fill a gallon ziploc type bag with the following items: Chapstick, puzzle book, pen, a small pack of tissues, hand sanitizer, lotion, fuzzy socks and a journal. Handmade notes of support remind our recipients that their Breathing Room Friends are thinking of them. The cards include simple words of support, such as, “Have a Good Day” or “Thinking of You.”
No mints, please.
