Gerald used to enjoy coming home after a hard day of work at the Clubhouse and watching a movie. Gerald needs a DVD player so he can do this again.
Whit and Anna need a TV so they can come home from a busy day and relax while watching TV.
Nancy would like a DVD player because hers broke and she watches movies to help her cope.
Mary joined the Clubhouse and immediately jumped into the Clubhouse culture. She's an active leader in her unit and recently started a TE at Caldwell and Company. She needs professional clothing to wear to work. Pants and blouses (size 14), bra (38C), and underwear (size 10).
Robert would like an acoustic guitar. He has always wanted to play the guitar and he is starting to integrate activities into his life that help him feel better.

She is a single mother on an extremely limited income and is unable to buy the extra items needed for her and her daughter.
