WHPC is hosting a community-wide donation drive to collect incontinence products to support older adults and their caregivers who may otherwise struggle to afford them. Donations help provide comfort, hygiene, and independence through AGE’s Health Equipment Lending Program, which distributes these items free of charge to neighbors in need across Central Texas.
Our goal is to collect 350 packages (all-sizes) of incontinence products.
This is in partnership with AGE of Central Texas, Memory Matters, and Mission.
