 | The Saginaw County Young Professionals Network is teaming up with Shoebox Saginaw to support women in need right here in Saginaw County. Every box we fill goes directly to someone in our community! We’re collecting shoeboxes and personal care items, plus cash and gift card donations. Any money we receive goes toward buying more items to fill boxes. Suggested items: socks, hats, gloves, scarves, one-size slipper socks, brushes, combs, toothbrushes, toothpaste, lotion, perfume, deodorant, shampoo, conditioner, Kleenex, nail files, wallets or coin purses, small sewing kits, small notebooks and pens, calendars, gift cards and nonperishable candy. Drop off donations at: - November Perc Breakfast: Thursday, November 5, 2026, 7:30–9 a.m., Dow Event Center, 303 Johnson St., Saginaw, MI 48607
- December Perc Breakfast: Thursday, December 3, 2026, 7:30–9 a.m., Horizons Conference Center, 6200 State St., Saginaw, MI 48603
