Golden Senior Santa
GOLDEN SENIOR SANTA IS BACK!
We are happy to announce our participation and support of Golden Senior Santa to provide holiday gifts to senior citizens who have financial or health challenges and often do not have family nearby. This brightens the holidays of a group in our community who are sometimes overlooked during this time of year.
Participating seniors provide their “wish list” items which areavailable on tags hung on the Christmas trees at Connects or on anAmazon Wish List. If you choose Amazon Wish List, you can pick a gift requested by a senior and it will be delivered to Santa’s Workshop for wrapping and delivery. All reindeer will wear special masks.
Gifts should be ordered in time for delivery or returned to Connects (unwrapped) with the tag no later than Tuesday, December 14th.
This is an especially challenging year for some of the seniors in our community, and your thoughtfulness can make a huge difference in their holiday.
Thank you!
