Holiday Gift Drive

Gift Comfort and Joy to Patients in Southeastern Wisconsin

At Rogers Behavioral Health, patients are taking important steps toward healing and recovery. While the holidays can bring additional emotions and time away from loved ones, a thoughtful gift can offer comfort, encouragement, and a reminder that they are supported. 

How to Participate

  • Set up a drop box with our Wish List flyer

Display the flyer next to a drop box (barrel, box, etc.)  at your business or organization and invite colleagues and your community to bring in items during the month of November. Deliver items to the Rogers location of your choice by Friday, December 11.
