    After volunteering and speaking with colleagues that volunteer there, there is a great abundance of items, but there are certain items they need. So if you're going to give, this is what they're lacking:

    Baby Bibbs - they have diapers/clothes/formula but no bibbs!

    Hair Brushes - all they have are combs!

    Newspapers/Magazines - Though they have televisions many of the older folks are used to reading and it helps the time pass.

    EyeGlasses - Many folks left without their glasses, so varying prescription glasses would be great. And reading glasses too.

    T-Shirts- XXL t-shirts and clothes were lacking, but they had ample quantity of other sizes

    Good Luck! The entrance to the donation area to the George Brown is on Polk Street.

    I spent Wednesday at GRB and yesterday at Reliant. I will be at Reliant today from 2-9.

    Other things they need:

    Hand sanitizer
    Diapers
    Handi Wipes
    Packs of new underwear

    Do they need more volunteers? Is there still the training course you have to go through?

    Thank you for the information.
