Snuggies for Seniors Collection Drive

Hope Hospice of St. Louis will host a "Snuggies for Seniors" collection drive on Saturday, December 11 at all St. Louis area Syberg's restaurant locations.  Items to be collected include gloves, hats, slippers, socks, robes and (of course) Snuggies.  These items will be distributed to nursing home patients throughout metro St. Louis.

Each year as winter approaches, Hope Hospice donates numerous items to nursing homes to help keep seniors warm.  With the generous help of the St. Louis community, Hope Hospice looks to deliver a significantly larger number of items to senior care facilities in 2010.

Hope Hospice employees and volunteers will be collecting on December 11 at Syberg's locations on Market in downtown St. Louis, on Dorsett in Maryland Heights, on Gravois in Affton, on Chesterfield Airport Road in Chesterfield and at Helen Fitzgerald's on Lindbergh in Sunset Hills.  Collections will begin at 5pm at all locations.

As part of the collection drive, Syberg's will offer its famous Wing Sauce for $5.00 per bottle.  A portion of the proceeds will be used to purchase more "Snuggies for Seniors."  Cash donations will also be accepted.

Donations may also be dropped off at Hope Hospice offices, located at 13537 Barrett Parkway Drive, St. Louis 63021 during regular business hours. For directions or more information, call Hope Hospice at 314-984-9800.
