DAVENPORT, IOWA (August 2, 2021) — Gilda’s Club Quad Cities is reaching out to request your help with filling chemo care-bags for patients going through treatment. This bag is a special gift that will be given to individuals facing treatment for the first time. The chemo care-bags will be filled with items to help pass the time during treatment and bring them joy during the long periods of time they are at the cancer center(s).
Gilda’s Club Quad Cities has created an Amazon Wishlist to visually see what is needed. Some items you will find on the wish list include, Chapstick, word puzzles, hard candy, Kleenex, color pencils, bland snack foods and so much more. Our goal is to fill 100 chemo care bags.
Donations can be shipped directly to the Moline Clubhouse [600 John Deere Road, Suite 101, Moline, IL 61265] or dropped off during normal business hours, Monday-Thursday 8AM-5PM.
If you have a donation not listed on the Wishlist, please call Program Director Kelsey Allen to further discuss, 563-326-7504.
