Be a Secret Santa for Families in Need!

It's that time of year again. We are now collecting gift cards for the holiday drive benefitting the Building Healthy Children program through UR Medicine Social Work. The Building Healthy Children program helps over 155 families by providing home-based support services and promoting positive birth outcomes.

All gift cards will need to be received by 12 p.m. Wednesday, Dec. 9 to give case workers time to gather, arrange and equitably distribute these gifts. Please deliver—unwrapped—to the Friends of Strong Office (Room 1-1230) Monday–Friday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Our mailing address is:
601 Elmwood Ave
Box 660
Rochester NY, 14642

Great options are Walmart, Tops, Amazon, Local Retailers, Target, and Dollar Stores. To learn more, visit our blog post about the BHC program and gift card collection!
