Holiday Gift Bag Drive for Senior Residents

Many seniors experience isolation, especially during the holidays, when family gatherings are happening all around them. Creating joyful experiences and meaningful connections can go a long way in lifting their spirits and fighting off loneliness. In fact, seniors in care homes are sometimes overlooked, particularly during this time of year. Studies indicate that around half of nursing home residents may receive few to no visitors, underscoring the importance of community support during the holidays.

Let's come together to bring some holiday cheer to the residents at Vista View Post Acute Care and show them they are valued and remembered.

With a small $10 donation, you can sponsor a gift bag filled with treats, cozy items, and fun activities to brighten their days. Our donation drive runs from Sunday, November 10 to Friday, December 6. We will assemble the gift bags during the week leading up to delivery on Sunday, December 15.
