Bags of Hope
W
e invite you to join us in our ongoing efforts to help local Families with cancer by being a part of our Bags of Hope Program. When an individual is going through cancer treatment, it takes a toll on both their physical and emotional health. With the help of supporters like you, we can provide individuals undergoing cancer treatment with a bag of Unexpected Amazingness to brighten their day. Think of your Bags of Hope as “Get Well Soon” packages containing items that will help individuals get through their treatments.
Below is an overview on how to participate in Bringing Hope Home’s Bags of Hope Program.
If you would like to learn more, please email Cindy Jaros at cindyjaros@bringinghopehome.org
or call 484-580-8395, ext. 116.
Step 1: Form a Team or Engage Your Employees: While individuals are more than welcome to do this project, we encourage you to form a team of people to help assemble your bags. This project is a great team-building opportunity!
Step 2: Order Your Bags of Hope Supplies: Decide how many Bags of Hope you would like to put together and which package option below works best for your group. Please place your order at least 2-3 weeks prior to service event.
Step 3: Assemble your Bags of Hope: Shipping times will vary based on the quantity ordered. If you and your group would like to make personalized cards to include inside each bag, click here to download our Bags of Hope card template and print them out. Cards are meant to let individuals know that they are not alone and that they are being thought of so any kind of uplifting or inspirational message is great to write inside! You can also decorate and color the front of the card. Coordination of your Zoom call or in-person speaker will be scheduled directly with your BHH contact person for your assembly day.
Step 4: Deliver your Bags of Hope: Once your bags have been assembled, please let your contact at BHH know, and we will coordinate delivery to a local hospital/cancer center. BHH will assist with arrangements for your delivery through coordination with one of our referring social workers. Bags can be immediately delivered to individuals during their cancer treatment.
Options 1 & 2 package also includes:
15-minute Zoom call with a BHH staff member during your packing event
BHH card template that you can download for your team to make cards to be included in each bag
Delivery of the bags will be coordinated with a local hospital/cancer center
