Opportunity Details... AARP Blizzard Boxes

In West Virginia, many seniors rely heavily on daily home-delivered meals for their nutritional needs. The idea of a blizzard box is to provide homebound seniors with an emergency food supply in the event of a snow blizzard, floods, or other disasters.
The Blizzard Boxes can be distributed through existing meal delivery systems, such as county senior centers, community churches, and local Meals on Wheels programs.
The 2009 Blizzard Box campaign is scheduled to begin in mid-September and will conclude by Thanksgiving. We need your help in collecting single- serving, pre-packaged, canned or dried, non-perishable food items for inclusion in the blizzard boxes.
We hope we can count on your support for this project that will benefit homebound senior citizens in your local community.
