BEAT THE HEAT CARE PACKAGES FOR SENIORS

Together we assembled 6 “Beat the Heat” care packages for seniors with items each family had purchased. The children colored pictures and decorated canvas bags to include with the packages. Each package also included a letter to the seniors offering contact info if any of them would like a visit from our families, a group photo, and a greeting card from the chimpanzee guardian fundraiser. We delivered the care packages to the Via Linda Senior Center, where City of Scottsdale social workers will bring them to seniors living alone and speak to them about the importance of keeping cool and well hydrated during the brutal desert summer.
