DELAWARE & LEHIGH NATIONAL HERITAGE CORRIDOR would appreciate people helping by picking up trash on the trail as part of the D&L Trail Tenders program. In general people can help clean the D&L Trail or trailheads by picking up trash, removing sticks or brush, and help keep the signs clean. For those who do more than picking up a few things on a walk we ask that they report what they did so we can keep track of it using an online form: https://delawareandlehigh.org/trail-programs/trail-tenders/trail-tenders-reporting-form/

 

LEHIGH VALLEY HEALTH NETWORK is calling all artists, young & old, to help cheer up hospitalize patients who are not permitted visitors by creating (nondenominational) inspirational get-well cards and letters. You can also make encouragement or thank you cards for the hardworking staff & clinical workers. Please mail your cards and letters to: LVHN, Volunteer Services, PO Box 689, Allentown, PA 18105

 

SIXTH STREET SHELTER, Allentown is seeking volunteers to donate Easter baskets for our kids in residence. We have about 90 children at the shelter right now and would love to be able to brighten their holiday with some Easter cheer! You can create an assembled basket for a girl or boy or donate items to go into a basket. Some ideas: chocolate or candy, small stuffed animals (new only), yo-yo or other small toys, coloring or activity books, card games, stickers. We are accepting donation in our rear parking lot Mondays through Fridays, between 10 AM and 1 PM. Please call 610-435-1490 when you arrive, and a staff member will come out to assist you. If you have any questions, feel free to contact us.
