Looking for a way to help people in need this Holiday Season?
Thresholds is a non-profit agency that supports Kent County adults with
developmental disabilities who live in group homes, independently, or with family.
The adults Thresholds serve have limited incomes, and those who live
independently need basic supplies to continue to be successful on their own.
Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to help people in need.
Below is a Wish List from those who live independently. These wishes are small but are a wonderful way to bless others. You can help by donating items from the list below or cash for staff to purchase items. If you have any questions or would like additional information, please contact me. Thank you for helping spread the joy this year!
Blessings to you this Holiday Season,
Jane Owen, Chair Thresholds Board
