Spread Christmas Cheer at WASI

Contributed by Sally Barnes

Help us change lives for the better and allow us to do what we do best—make a difference and bring unexpected happiness to seniors throughout the Mat-Su Valley. Last year with the help of a few elves in the community, Santa delivered over 400 gifts to seniors in our programs. 

Be a part of this amazing program by donating items for our Christmas Giving Event.  Items will be assembled and wrapped by our wonderful volunteer elves. The following is a list of items you can donate: 

Towels - both kitchen and bath 

Hand soap – pump style preferred 

Warm socks 

Warm hats 

Blankets 

Individual snacks – cheese crackers, cookies, snack-packs and other items you wish to donate.   

If you don’t have time to shop, you can donate on our website www.wasillaseniors.com and write Christmas Giving Event in the comments.

Please drop items at Wasilla Area Seniors, Inc. (label Christmas Giving Event) at 1301 S. Century Circle, Wasilla.   

Gifts will be delivered to seniors on our Meals-On-Wheels program on December 22 and to those who visit the center. Oftentimes, the only gift a senior will receive during the holidays is the one you have graciously supplied. Please consider opening your hearts and helping us bring joy during the holidays. You can help us make a difference. 

If you have any questions or need more information, please call 907-206-8799 or email juliel@alaskaseniors.com
