The Care Committee is a non-profit program under the Conservancy and Community Trust (CCT) of South Gulf Cove.
For the past seven years, the Care Committee in partnership with Englewood Meals on Wheels (EMOW) have been providing seniors and home-bound individuals with a gift package each year at Christmas. Each gift box or bag was filled with personal need items, small gifts, games, etc. and delivered by EMOW in December with a warm meal. For many of these residents this was the only gift they received during the holiday season. This year we will be doing “Santa Sacks for Seniors” for the 180 clients of EMOW who receive meals.
We will need SGC community support to make this project a success. Due to the continued Covid restrictions we will be asking for monetary donations so that new items can be purchased for our sacks. Checks or cash donations are tax deductible and receipts can be issued upon request. Checks should be made out to CCT with memo notation of Care Committee. Please send or drop off your monetary donations to Becky Frye – 9340 President Circle – Port Charlotte, FL 33981. Or just CLICK HERE
Please help us show our seniors and home bound that SGC residents’ care. Thank you in advance for your donations and support. For those of you who have been collecting small toiletries this past year and would like to donate them to the Care Committee, we will continue to collect hotel size toiletries and donate them to the homeless. There will be a container next to the Kid’s Needs Hamper at the clubhouse for those items. Additionally, we will continue collect pull tabs in the HOA Clubhouse in support of the Ronald McDonald House, eyeglasses for the Lion’s Club, and like-new clothing for children. We also assist with raising funds for the SGC CCT Scholarship fund. Information on projects, collections, or joining the Care Committee can be obtained through monthly newsletters, the CCT website, www.southgulfcovecct.org , or contacting care@southgulfcove.org.
