Include your Loved one
To have someone added to our list please contact us at info@gvbluestarmothers.org with the information. We will NOT give these names and addresses out. Once we have approved an application we ask only that you contact us with an update so we do not have packages returned. All information is kept strictly confidential. You do not have to be a member to make a request.
Help with Packaging
Contact us for the date of the next care packaging. Volunteers are always welcome.
Letters and cards are welcome. For security purposes they must not be in sealed envelopes since we WILL read them before sending them out.
If your group would like to gather items and package them you can help by sorting the food from the hygiene products and bringing them to us in clear ziploc bags.
Phone Cards need to be AT&T international cards.
