Hello! We are Traci and Anna, two independent consultants with Usborne Books & More. We have hearts for generosity - especially when it comes to books and helping out our hometown of Jasper, IN.
The COVID-19 situation has been a difficult one for all of us to navigate - our world has been turned upside down and closed down. Kids are out of school, parents are working from home, and activities have all but stopped. With this ceasing of activity has come a mandatory ceasing of visits for our seniors - our grandparents, parents, aunts, uncles, siblings - who live in retirement communities.
Good Samaritan - Northwood Retirement Community in Jasper has recently been affected with several residents and staff members testing positive for COVID-19. While we cannot be on the front lines with them in caring for the residents, we can show we care by sending activity books to keep the residents engaged and busy during this time that they cannot have visitors.
We need your help! Our team has set a goal of $3,000. With Usborne Books & More's very generous 50% match for donations, that will be an amazing $4,500 that can be used for books! Won't you be one of only 150 people with a $20 gift to help us bless the residents of Good Sam? <3
The funds we raise will go directly to purchasing high quality and distinctive activity books and puzzles from Usborne Books & More to be presented to the residents of Good Samaritan - Northwood Retirement Community.
Thank you for your consideration and for your support!
