Donations Surpass Years Past

Each year, Jeanne delivers the donated gifts to SPARCC, which are shown overflowing from her car, mirroring the generosity.

The holiday season seemed to rush by as it so often does, but with great attention and care, the staff, caregivers, and clients of Take Care Private Duty Home Health Care and Take Care Advisor took time to focus on the well-being of others. Each December all four Take Care offices, in Sarasota, Bradenton, and Venice, Florida collectively adopt three families through the Holiday Helper Program at Safe Place and Rape Crisis Center, Inc., in Sarasota. This is all part of the company’s “Take Care Gives Back” program. Take Care collected a record number of donated wrapped Christmas gifts (clothing, toys, and other “wish list items”), totaling more than $1,000, for three mothers and their children, who all are survivors of domestic violence. The goal of the collections is to ensure that these families could enjoy a happy holiday season.

In addition to collecting new donated gift items for SPARCC families, the Sarasota and Venice Take Care offices collected more than 60 pounds in food donations for All Faiths Community Food Bank in Sarasota and DeSoto counties.
