The Circle of Life Committee at Phoebe Allentown Health Care Center, 1925 Turner Street, will host their 13th Annual Basket Social in Moyer Hall from 4:00 to 8:00 p.m. on Thursday, October 11 and from 7:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. on Friday, October 12, 2012.

Over 90 themed gift baskets will be raffled with values of up to $100 or more. Tickets are 5 for $1.00 or 30 for $5.00.  Donuts, fruit, coffee, soda and hamburger barbecue will be available for purchase.

The Basket Social provides funds to put Phoebe Allentown’s “Circle of Life” program into action in ways that make the long-term care community more home-like.  An integral part of this philosophy is the award-winning intergenerational program, which includes activities like a summer day camp for children and grandchildren of staff, volunteers and residents.  The “Circle of Life” at Phoebe Allentown also provides opportunities for residents to garden, volunteer, care for house plants, bake and tend to live-in cats, birds and fish. Last year, the Basket Social raised over $6,500.

The event is free and open to the public.  Please call 610-794-5106 or e-mail rjarrell@phoebe.org<mailto:rjarrell@phoebe.org> for more information or to make a donation.
