Home2 Suites by Hilton Ogden is hosting a food and supply drive for Lantern House now through Dec. 22. The community is encouraged to donate non-perishable food items, hygiene products, toothbrushes, toothpaste, deodorant, toilet paper, razors and other essentials.

Lantern House is facing a shortage of these basic necessities to support the community members it serves. Home2 Ogden’s food and supply drive aims to help fill this urgent need.

The effort is part of Western States Lodging and Management’s 10×30 Kindness Challenge, in which the company’s 5,000 associates complete 10 daily acts of kindness through Dec. 13, totaling 1.5 million acts of kindness this holiday season. Combating loneliness and the “holiday blues” is a key motivator behind the campaign.

Donations can be dropped off at Home2 Suites Ogden, located at 2405 Lincoln Ave., through Dec. 22 at 5:30 p.m. The supplies will be delivered to Lantern House on Nov. 22 and Dec. 22 at 6 p.m.

Those interested in supporting Lantern House through donations can contact Kevin Schuster at 531-710-4487 or kschuster@lukaspartners.com. Community participation can make a vital difference for those in need this holiday season.
