HOLIDAY ACTIVITIES

Help us support Cocoon House

Each year Riverside Neighbors select a non-profit to support and this year it is Cocoon House. The mission of Cocoon House is to empower young people, families, and the community to break the cycle of homelessness through outreach, housing and prevention. This mission supports the belief that every young person deserves a home and the opportunity to achieve their fullest potential.

What they need:

The list above shows what they need and here are some other needed items:
Umbrellas
Sweatshirt/hoodies all adult sizes
Men's athletic shoes: sizes 8-12
Women's athletic shoes: sizes 6-11

You can give three ways:

1. Purchase something from the list above and drop off at Katrina's 2515 E. Grand Ave before 12/16.

2. Go to their website and click DONATE. In the notes please mention you are from Riverside so we can track our donations!

3. Go directly to their Amazon gift list, purchase and have the item sent directly to them
