Get in the holiday spirit by joining us along with special guest, Mayor Jake Day for our annual Be a Santa to a Senior® kickoff event on November 8th, 12 noon at the Salisbury Chamber of Commerce located at 144 E. Main Street, Salisbury MD 21801. Delectable seasonal fare, traditional holiday music and an interactive display about this impactful program will be available throughout the event.
Last year, we delivered 600 gifts to seniors locally and nationally over the past five years volunteers have delivered more than one million gifts to 660,000 seniors that would otherwise be lonely or isolated during the holidays.
Seniors who would benefit from this program were identified through our collaboration with these local non-profit organizations: MAC Area Agency on Aging, Shore Up – Shady Pines Adult Medical Day Services, Coastal Hospice – Compass Program, Berlin Nursing and Rehabilitation Center, and Worcester County: Department of Health, Social Services, and Commission on Aging.
How you can help:
• Visit our community partners, choose an ornament from their Christmas tree, purchase the gift, wrap and return it to the location where you chose the ornament from no later than December 15th. Gifts will be delivered to seniors December 18th – December 20th.
