Aspiranet seeks gift wrapping donations for holiday gifts for foster and at-risk youth

Leading human services agency Aspiranet is asking for the community’s support to bring holiday joy to at-risk children and youth by donating extra or new of holiday gift wrapping paper. These donations enable our limited holiday budget to go farther to guarantee the best holiday celebration we can provide to the children and youth we serve during their most vulnerable time.

The public can simply drop off holiday gift wrapping paper at the Aspiranet Long Beach office located at 1043 Pine Ave. every day this week from 9 a.m. until 4 p.m. through Thursday, Dec. 15. Participating Aspiranet offices will have a large box in the lobby where individuals can place gift wrapping paper donations.
