DONATE GIFT CARDS
We are helping Bedford Youth & Family services and Bedford Public Schools by donating gift cards to families identified as needing a boost this winter. Gift cards will be used for caregivers to purchase gifts for their children.
Any gift card will do, but gift cards that are local and easily accessible to Bedford or easy shipping online are helpful. Thank you!
Youth & Family Services has especially identified $25 denomination cards to Target, TJMaxx/Marshalls, Ocean State Job Lots, Amazon, or Walmart.
Drop off to:
- Drop box in the lobby of Bedford Police Department (2 Mudge Way) any time through December (24 hours per day, 7 days per week). Walk in and turn to the right, the drop box is on a shelf in the lobby, no need to talk to anyone.
- Lif Books, 18 North Road, in the yellow building near Bedford Farms, during business hours. Check the website/social media for hours.
- Youth & Family Services during working hours (second floor of the yellow Town Center building at 12 Mudge Way).
