For the past five years, since the COVID pandemic, the New Hope Improvement Association has provided personalized gifts for all residents and gift cards for patient-care staff at this nursing home.
The majority of PruittHealth-Carolina Point residents are Medicaid recipients. The dedicated hard-working staff are truly an inspiration. The facility has just recently gotten over another COVID outbreak. We have seen firsthand that without our gift bags very few would have any gift at all on Christmas. Our hope is to continue giving this year what we have given in past years.
There are 90 residents and we give gifts totaling $20 to each person. The requests the residents make are for things like blankets, slippers, candy or snack crackers, clothing, and hygiene items. There are also 60 patient-care staff members and we have given each one a Food Lion Gift Card, for which they have been very grateful.
We hope our members and friends will participate in this Holiday Benefit for the PruittHealth residents and staff. In the past, no other church or other organization is involved with this home. The facility is located on Mt. Sinai Rd., so close to home.

We thank you & Happy Holidays to all!
