Holiday Giving at GAIN

This month, we’re putting out our collecting basket to help support our neighbors in need during the holiday season.

We’re proud to partner with Operation Blessing, a local organization providing food, clothing, household essentials, warm showers, and a safe, welcoming place for individuals and families in difficult circumstances.

From their website:

“At Operation Blessing, we’re more than a resource—we’re a community of compassion, hope, and dignity. Serving our neighbors in need, we offer nourishing food through a unique shopping-style pantry, clothing and household essentials, warm showers, and a safe place to gather.

Every program we offer, from our weekend café to our warming center, is designed to restore not just physical needs, but also the sense of connection and care every person deserves. Together, with the help of volunteers, donors, and friends like you, we’re building a place where everyone feels seen, supported, and loved.”

How You Can Help

We’re collecting:

• Non-perishable food

• Clothing

• Shoes

• Household items

You can learn more about what Operation Blessing accepts on their website.
The basket will be out at the gym for most of December.

Thank you!
