During the holiday, we receive numerous requests and referrals to assist low-income seniors facing challenging circumstances. The costs of groceries and essential items have surged, compelling seniors to confront difficult choices.
Last year, we helped 108 low-income seniors by providing them with essential supplies, food, and holiday gift cards. Anticipating a growing demand this year, we are reaching out for your support. Your contributions can make a significant impact, helping us raise funds to provide basic necessities and enable them to partake in the joyous festivities of this crucial time of the year. Whether in the form of cash or gift cards, your donations will go a long way in assisting those who are unable to help themselves. Join us in making a difference and ensuring that no senior is left behind during the holiday season. Contact us to arrange gift cards donations, or donate directly on our website.
