Residents and visitors to Care One at King James are doing their own Christmas giving for those less fortunate.
Activities Director Karen Cohen reported the Care Center is holding a raffle of a basket of a variety of gift ideas with all proceeds going to 180 Turning Lives Around and visitors are invited to take chances and contribute to the cause. Turning Lives Around has numerous activities to aid people in different circumstances, including a center for victims of domestic abuse in Hazlet. All chances must be completed by Dec. 16 for entry into the raffle.
In addition to this fund raiser, the residents sponsor several other fund raisers throughout the year to help numerous other causes, from animal needs to Ukraine victims.
As the same time, visitors are invited to stop at the Care Center, located on Route 36 in Middletown, and take the time of a resident from their Christmas celebration table and shop for a gift for that person. Those participating in this program can contact Cohen to find specific sizes, needs or desires of the care center resident selected.
