Be a Santa to a Senior

Cayuga County has many seniors who are lonely and financially in need. Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, our seniors continue to be more isolated that ever. The opportunity to connect with our senior community, even in as small a way as a gift at the holidays is so important and will raise spirits!

Here is how YOU can be a Santa to a Senior. Pick a gift tag from any of the trees located at Five Star Bank, 345 Genesee Street, Lyons National Bank, 63 Genesee Street or Lyons National Bank, 311 Grant Avenue Road. Buy the gift noted on the tag and return the gift unwrapped with the tag attached to the location you picked it up from by Friday, December 17th.  Or you can visit Riester’s Appliances, 1533 Clark Street Road, Auburn, and drop off essential items such as lotion, body wash, deodorant, socks (men’s or women’s), hats, gloves, scarves, blankets or even a 2022 calendar in the Be a Santa to a Senior box.  For more information, contact Liza Kelly or Melissa Slater, 315-252-2354.  Sponsored by Home Instead, 2 South Street, Suite 309, Auburn, NY.
