Perrysburg Rotary, Making the Holidays Brighter
The Cocoon Christmas Wish List
Some families fleeing from abuse will spend the holiday season residing in shelter. They will be safe, warm and amongst Cocoon staff who will be there to support them 24/7. Because of the continued generosity of the Perrysburg Rotary Club, many survivors in shelter and in the greater community will receive holiday gifts.
Even small donations make a big impact. A quote from a Cocoon survivor:
"The many trips I had to make to the courthouse during my case against my abuser was taking a financial toll on my already strained resources. My Cocoon advocate told me that they could provide assistance with gas cards thanks to the many wonderful community donors. I was able to stretch my paycheck to the end of the month and ensure that we kept a roof over our heads!"
Suggested donation items:
- Cash donations (so specific gifts may be purchased)
- Gas or grocery cards in increments of $10 or $15
- Pampering items for adult women (face scrubs, mud masks, nail polish, slippers, etc.)
Donations can be made online at https://thecocoon.org/get-involved-2/financial-support/ (When at The Cocoon website, click on “15th Anniversary Campaign” and scroll down to the purple “Donate Now” tab); by phone at 419-373-1730, ext. 1002; or mailed to PO Box 1165, Bowling Green, OH 43402. Please make checks payable to The Cocoon. Please place unwrapped donations in the festive box in the lobby at Bollin Wealth Management, LLC, 842 W. South Boundary St., Perrysburg, OH 43551. Lobby hours: 9:00-4:00p. Elves are enlisting now to whisk presents to The Cocoon.
If you have questions about The Cocoon's Holiday Assistance Program or would like to help more, please contact Elle Fullenkamp at 419-373-1730 ext. 1013 or e.fullenkamp@thecocoon.org.
