AARP Colorado is hosting a Western Slope No-Contact Blanket Drive through Jan. 4 to provide new, unused blankets to local nursing home residents to help beat isolation and send some love during this difficult time, a news release said.
An online $10 contribution will provide a new lap blanket, âgift wrapped and delivered to the residents of local nursing facilities, who have suffered during this tough time, isolated from loved ones due to the pandemic and plagued by loneliness and depression,â the release said.
Blankets will be delivered to residents of The Oaks Assisted Living Facility in Fruita, and Eagle Ridge of Grand Valley, in Grand Junction.
