Gifts of Light Communities

Though the holiday season may be joyful for some, for others this time is hard and lonely. Gifts Of Light is dedicated to help residents who are alone and depressed during the holidays to feel cared for and appreciated.

We do our best to meet everyone’s wishes; however, we cannot guarantee volunteer participation. To avoid disappointing residents, please refrain from setting expectations until volunteer participation is confirmed.

​Which residents can participate in the program?

Gifts of Light is a non-denominational program for residents who :

• Have little or no family support
• Have no personal visitors during the holidays
• Reside in nursing homes
• May have cognitive impairment

What do we need?

• Lists of eligible residents entered below.
• Gift lists with the elders’ names, first and last initial and their room and bed number.
• List of items to improve the lives of residents who can no longer communicate 

Note: Be sure to include gender and clothing sizes to make it easier for volunteers to purchase requested items. Please be as specific as possible.
