The holidays are all about sharing love and making memories with family and friends. Unfortunately, for many homebound individuals, the holiday season can be a lonely time. That is why REAL Services is inviting citizens in Marshall County to join their effort to make the holiday season a little bit brighter for lonely adults.
This year, REAL Services is requesting $50 Visa or MasterCard gift card(s) to allow elders to shop safely for something they need. Of course, they welcome any amount of gift you desire to share. Smaller denomination cards will be grouped, and monetary gifts will be combined to ensure that each person receives a $50 gift. If you prefer to let REAL Services do the legwork, you can mail your gift card or click the link below to donate online. Your generosity will make a world of difference and bring hope and happiness to someone who needs it most.
While gift cards can be dropped off or mailed to Portage Commons 133 N. William St., South Bend, IN 46601, the cards collected in Marshall County will be shared with Real Services clients in our county.
If you have any questions about the program, please call Sandy at (574) 284-7159
