A Paper Drive for the Impoverished Seniors

          HSP would like to thank the Village of Carol Stream, who graciously held a paper products drive for our Senior Citizen Project this month. Many village employees participated in the drive, and the village office also functioned as a drop off point for paper product donations from community members. Linda Johansen brought us the generous delivery of donations last Wednesday and dropped off a second delivery last Saturday. All together, we received 69 boxes of Kleenex, 192 rolls of paper towels, and 379 rolls of toilet paper to give to the needy seniors in our program on delivery day.

            Every month on delivery day, we bring fresh produce, non-perishables, frozen meat, bread, a secret pal gift, and two bags of paper products to each senior in our Senior Citizen Project. The donations from the Village of Carol Stream’s drive will go towards these deliveries. Paper product drives are essential to our ability to supply the seniors with paper products each month.
