Holiday of Hope: Giving Back to the Community

Every year, Cooper employees demonstrate their generous holiday spirit by helping those in need in our community. This holiday season, there are several ways you can join with the Cooper Foundation to make a difference in someone’s life:

Canned Food Drive: We will collect canned goods and other non-perishable items for the Food Bank of South Jersey through December 6, 2013.

Coats, Mittens and Scarves for Children: We will collect NEW, CHILDREN’S coats, jackets, hats, scarves, mittens and clothes for our young neighbors in Cooper Plaza and Lanning Square through December 6, 2013.

Drop-Off Locations for Food Drive and Clothing Drive:

  • Camden: Cooper University Hospital – Errand Solutions, First Floor, Roberts Pavilion
  • Camden: Three Cooper Plaza – Lobby
  • Camden: Cooper Foundation – 200 Federal Street, Suite 146
  • Cherry Hill: 3 Executive Campus – Billing Office Reception Area, Second Floor
  • Voorhees: Building One Atrium

Adopt-A-Family: This is a perfect group holiday project! For the fourth year in a row, Cooper employees are invited to adopt a family and help them celebrate through a partnership with Volunteers of America Delaware Valley, who will provide a wish list from a family in need.

Here’s how Adopt-A-Family works: You can participate as an individual, group or department. Select a group leader if you are participating as a group. Email Tara Elk at the Cooper Foundation at elk-tara@cooperhealth.edu to request a family. Volunteers of America will distribute gifts to the families.

Additional information and drop off locations for Adopt-A-Family will be posted later this month.
