“Neither a Borrower nor Lender be…”

  • November 2025

This quote might have been relevant in Shakespeare’s time, but if your kids and grandkids are coming to visit and you need a pack ’n play at the last minute, it’s important!

They will only be here for a few days. You don’t want to invest in buying something they will have outgrown by next season! What to do? Go to Grandma’s Closet on the http://www.VCAlife.com website.

Need kids’ toys? Car seats? Medical equipment? Card table/chairs? Inflatable bed?

Grandma’s Closet has a listing of a wide variety of items Verandah residents are willing to loan to others.

1. Just go to VCAlife.com.

2. Click on Things to Do (very top of page).

3. Click on Grandma’s Closet (dropdown menu) and see who has what you need.

4. Contact the lender and make arrangements to pick up.

✳️ This program only works if neighbors are willing to loan what they have. Look around your house and garage. Do you have folding tables and chairs, ladder, garden tools, kids’ items, pool toys you’re willing to lend?

Email Grandma ([email protected]) if you have items you’d like listed on Grandma’s Closet on the VCAlife website.

Thanks to everyone with items they’re willing to lend. It’s programs like this that make Verandah special.
