The Hamilton Heights Chapter of Key Club is currently holding a Care Drive to support the Dayspring Center.
Key Club Faculty Advisor Lillian Morris said members chose the Dayspring Center because this organization helps entire families who are displaced for a myriad of reasons and have no other options.
Personal care items in short supply and high demand at the Center include: Soap (bar and hand), shampoo, conditioner, toothpaste, toothbrushes, floss, mouthwash, deodorant, facial tissues, tampons, pads, diapers, pull ups (2T/3T and 4T/5T), Vaseline, lotion, hand sanitizer, rubbing alcohol (70 percent or above) and Clorox/Lysol wipes.
Cash donations or gift cards to purchase these items are also gladly accepted.
The Dayspring Center provides emergency shelter, clothing and three nourishing meals a day for homeless families with children in Central Indiana. Families turn to the Center as a last resort; some to escape domestic abuse, others have experienced financial collapse, medical problems, or other crises that caused them to lose their home.
Dayspring effectively works to combat and prevent family homelessness by first meeting their most immediate needs for food and shelter, then working with each family to address the issues that led them to their homelessness.
Key Club is an international, student-led, high school organization with its members working to make the world a better place through service-oriented projects. Hamilton Heights High School’s Key Club, created in 2007, consists of 40 members under the leadership of Lillian Morris and Elisa Garcia and is sponsored by the Cicero Kiwanis Club.
