With the vision to make the holiday season a little brighter for a local senior citizen the “Santa for Seniors” program was conceived in 2009. These seniors who may lack the support of family and have limited financial resources can be referred by local service providers to receive a Christmas gift.

        Seniors can be adopted by community members by calling 315-376-7431 or by listening to the Moose Radio or by email below. Gift suggestions, age and gender would be provided to the adoptee. Gifts will be returned unwrapped, and volunteers will wrap and prepare gifts for delivery. They will be delivered in conjunction with the Christmas Sharing Holiday Assistance Program distribution date.

        Monetary donations are accepted and used solely to purchase, gifts for seniors who are not adopted, items to enhance already donated gifts, and for program/wrapping supplies.

        The community support for this program since it’s conception has been nothing less than amazing. The “Santa for Seniors” program looks forward to partnering with CSEA Local 825, the Lowville Food Pantry, the Christmas Sharing Assistance Program, and the Moose Radio Station.
