ATRC Area Agency on Aging’s ‘Santa for Seniors’ adoptions open from Oct. 1 through Nov. 15

Christmas. The most wonderful time of the year! But not for everyone. Many needy seniors never experience the joys of Christmas. Help change this by partnering with the ATRC Aging to sponsor a senior for the 7th Annual Santa for Seniors service project. Seniors are available to adopt between October 1-November 15.

To sponsor a senior, go to the Santa for Seniors page on our website, www.atrcaging.com, where you will find non-identifying information about needy seniors within the 10-county region along with a list of items requested. You can sponsor seniors with a click or make a monetary donation through PayPal.

According to Director Delia Brand, “While children are the beneficiaries of many holiday programs, people often don’t think about the isolated and lonely seniors who need to be remembered as well during this season. We hope you’ll help bring a smile to a needy senior this Christmas season. ” ARC Case Management Staff have chosen the neediest seniors in the area as Santa for Seniors recipients. Many are low-income, homebound and alone. Most of the requests are for everyday items such as cleaning supplies, bed linens, adult diapers, and other basic necessities.

For more information call (334) 682-5206 or 888-617-0500.
