Last month, CeltiCare employees held a food and clothing drive for Rosie’s Place which provides emergency and long-term assistance to poor and homeless women who have nowhere else to turn. Spearheaded by Melissa Ordway of Process and Performance Support, the effort was a huge success with employees from across the company contributing food for the food pantry, winter coats, blankets, and clothing. A few employee volunteers made the trek to Rosie’s Place to deliver the items in person to the very grateful staff and clients.

Since its inception in 1974, Rosie’s Place has accepted no government funds, relying instead on committed volunteers and private supporters to deliver its mission. If you are interested in additional information on Rosie’s Place or how you can help the organization please visit their website at http://www.rosiesplace.org/.

Through our MemberConnections program, CeltiCare has been involved with Rosie’s Place for the past two years. Each month a connections representative helps members and non-members at Rosie’s Place locate quality healthcare and community social services resources available to them.

We plan to conduct more food and clothing drives in the future to support the many non-profit organizations that do so much good for our community. As we all know, this support is needed all year long and not just during the holiday season.
