With the goal of assisting individuals with basic needs, Greenwich Hospital employees recently donated 97 bags filled with new personal care items to YWCA Domestic Abuse Services. The collection drive was organized by the Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging Council (DEI&B Council) and the Professional Nursing Governance Healing Environment Council, whose members also filled the individual bags. Part of a Yale New Haven Health initiative, the donation included shampoo, toothpaste, toothbrushes, shaving and grooming items, sun block, skincare products and more.
