SUMMER CLOTHING DRIVE

We are thrilled to share that our Summer Clothing Drive was a huge success thanks to our incredibly generous members. Hundreds of items of clothing were collected for our neighbors in need, and the Community Day Center of Waltham was able to distribute the clothing to three organizations:

Community Day Center of Waltham. A local non-profit organization dedicated to providing goods and services to individuals experiencing homelessness. The donations received from Waverley Oaks members were instrumental in the opening of their new “shop” where Day Center clients can select new clothes.

Veterans. The center provides much-needed clothing to support our veterans, showing them the gratitude and care they deserve. ⁠

Neighbors Who Care. An organization dedicated to enhancing the quality of life for older adults. Their thrift shop supports their mission: to reduce elder isolation/loneliness for seniors living in the greater Waltham area.

BLOOD DRIVE

Thank you to all the donors who donated blood at the blood drive on June 5th. The turnout was incredibly successful and many lives will be impacted thanks to your generous donations.

Nearly all the available appointments for the day were booked resulting in over 50 donations which will help up to 150 patients. Donating blood is crucial as it saves lives and supports healthcare systems, and we look forward to hosting the Mass General Hospital Bloodmobile again soon!
