Ideas For the Industrious

By Rebecca R. Born

Executive Director, GPHC, Inc.

You can help us serve the neighborhood! Whether donations are gifts of time, money, or necessary items, they all make a lasting impact here at Greater Park Hill Community.

Please call me at 303-388-0918 or email director@greaterparkhill.org if you have any questions or would like to help. We are here Monday-Thursday from 9-3. Remember your donations are tax deductible!

Pantry needs: We always need reuseable bags, diapers/pull-ups (size 4,5, and 6 needed most), baby wipes and feminine hygiene items. We also always need kid-size toothbrushes and kid-friendly toothpaste.

If you are feeling industrious, you can save us a little time by making hygiene kits. For example, bundle of a couple of razors and a travel-size shaving cream, or put together kits of a toothbrush, toothpaste and floss.

Another idea, use quart size zip lock bags to divvy out powdered laundry detergent then write the directions in sharpie on the bag itself, for example, “1/4 cup per load.” We do the same here with large pet food donations. If any of this appeals to you, come on down Monday or Wednesday from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.
