Ways to give back this holiday season at the Voorhees Town Center
The holidays are a time for shopping, baking, entertaining… and for giving.
Voorhees Town Center is encouraging local residents to help their neighbors in need this holiday season by providing convenient access to a Holiday Gift Wrap, benefitting Camden County Chapter of Hadassah Raquela Group, Holiday Food Drop for the Give Thanks program and a Giving Tree for Cooper Hospital’s Clare’s Cupboard.
“Voorhees Town Center takes pride in being an integral member of the community. At this time of year in particular, we are fortunate to work with several notable nonprofits to shine a spotlight on their causes,” said Maria Umbriac, mall marketing director. “Over the years, the mall has served as a top location for donations, as we have found that no matter the economic climate, our shoppers are very generous when it comes to charitable giving.”
Hadassah of Camden County’s Holiday Gift Wrap
Voorhees Town Center will continue its long-standing tradition of hosting dedicated volunteers from the Raquela Group of the Camden County Chapter of Hadassah, to wrap gifts for mall shoppers throughout the holiday season, enhancing the mall’s accommodating, enjoyable shopping experience. Choose from a wide selection of designs, topped by one of a huge assortment of ribbons and bows, Friday, Dec. 16 through Saturday, Dec. 24 at the gift wrap center near Things Remembered, hours may vary.
All donations received will benefit cancer research. Hadassah of Camden County is a national, volunteer Zionist organization for women with 300,000 members. The organization is guided by the Hebrew word “tzedakah,” based on the Jewish concept that we are all one, and helping those in need is both a religious right and spiritual act.
