About this drive:
Hello! This year East Texas Cares Resource Center has embarked on creating a new reoccurring event to serve mothers in need called "Mothers' Moment". We decided to create a goods drive centered around Mother's Day. For our first year, we are placing several donation bins around Tyler to collect non-perishable food items, or other items such as diapers, wipes, clean clothes, etc. and we are also accepting monetary donations so we can purchase other essential childcare items or food that the moms in our community need. We will distribute these items to mothers around Mother's Day, which is May 8th.
Donation Bin Locations:
- DOLLAR GENERAL, 2724 W. Gentry, Tyler, TX, 75702
- TEXAS AFRICAN AMERICAN MUSEUM, 309 W Martin Luther King Jr Blvd, Tyler, TX, 75702
Requested Items for Donation:
- Non-perishable food items
