Local Home Instead is handing out gifts to seniors

Home Instead Senior Care in Duncansville began handing out gifts this afternoon for their “Be a Santa to a Senior” program.

For the last couple of months, they’ve been collecting gifts from the community with the help of area businesses.

Trees were placed inside with ornaments that contained a wish list for residents at local care centers.

This year they were able to give out gifts to 300 seniors in need who may not have anyone this holiday season.

“It’s priceless, you can’t, there’s no way to put it in more words than that,” said Bonnie Butler, Engagement Coordinator for Home Instead. “What that means to know that we’re able to help people that have no family, have nothing and to brighten their holiday by giving them a simple gift.”
