Holiday Gift Program

Results of the 2011 Holiday Gift Program

Thanks to the support of hundreds of individuals and contributors from 23 different organizations coming together, 2011 was the biggest year in the history of Community SeniorServ’s gift program, benefiting over 1,100 homebound seniors and day care participants with an estimated value of $37,000 in gifts. Gifts ranged from gift cards to personalized gifts and included items as large as refrigerators, beds, wheelchairs, electric scooters and dentures.  For many, this was the only gift they received this season.

The amazing results of the holiday gift program are truly a testament to the compassion and commitment of Orange County residents to the well being of homebound seniors in their community.  Thank you to everyone who contributed.

“My family and I were looking for some way to give back to the community while my children were on winter break and I am so glad that we found Community SeniorServ. My family and I arrived at the Anaheim office in December to pick up holiday gifts for the homebound seniors. We set out on our delivery route and were pleasantly surprised by all of the wonderful people that we met. We will always remember the tears of joy and look of surprise on everyone’s face. We never knew that providing a gift could bring such joy to so many people. We will definitely be participating in this program again next year.” ~Volunteer
