66 crib mattresses and 75 dressers will have Calgarians in need of all ages leading more comfortable lives in their homes around the city. The resources were purchased with financial donations from Jay Westman and the B'nai Brith Gentlemen's Dinner respectively, contributions which are much appreciated by NeighbourLink staff and clients alike!
"I feel good now, knowing that I don’t have to go into my closet and look for my clothes at the bottom of it," said Melissa, a client who received dressers from NeighbourLink for herself and her two young girls and teenage son earlier this year. Her family also received beds and baby supplies.
"As a result of the support of the community, my family has proper bedding and dressers for our children and ourselves!" she added.
75 + 66 = 141 clients will be feeling the same way as Melissa in these coming weeks as they receive their "proper bedding and dressers" too.
