Christmas is getting closer and closer. It's a time when we should especially take care of those in need and put a smile on their faces. 😊 It is not only children who write letters to Santa. In the "Father Christmas for Seniors" campaign, the authors are the elderly, who sent more than 11,000 letters. Their hopes and dreams are no less than those of the youngest. We are delighted to be able to help and take part in this year's action of the Foundation, which every year brings together a growing number of people wishing to support those most in need.
The foundation especially surrounds elderly people suffering from loneliness and difficult living situations. Volunteers also take into account the disabled, pensioners, veterans and socially excluded people, including the homeless. The assistance provided is wide-ranging - covering the mental, material and legal spheres.
"Starting in 2018, we are inviting nursing homes and care facilities to join the campaign, encouraging their residents to write letters with their needs and dreams, which, through our website, will be able to reach Father Christmases - people with big hearts," - say the organisers of the campaign.
Donors who decide to support the campaign select a letter from the base, complete the package and then forward it to the Foundation. We decided to make our own contribution to this worthy initiative and made a donation to the Foundation, together with the codes for sending gift packages.
Everyone can help, and together we can do more! Have a good Christmas!
