We buy gifts for kids, our military, even each other, but what are we doing to support our seniors who are homebound, disabled or on fixed incomes. Are you looking for something different to do this holiday season? Please reach out and help our seniors who desperately need assistance.
Many older adults continue to struggle in this economy, particularly those who live alone with no family nearby to help. Plus, the economy has affected millions of older Americans who counted on retirement funds and their savings.
It is easy to be a Santa to a senior. A Christmas tree at Norman Murray Community & Senior Center features tags with seniors, disabled adults and low income individual’s gift requests. With your help, you can make Christmas for our seniors a lot happier.

Please open your hearts to those seniors who have given so much to make our community a great place to live. You can go to the Norman Murray Community Center, 24932 Veterans Way, Mission Viejo, 92692 and take a tag off of the tree.
If you don’t have time to give a gift you can give a tax deductible donation. A $25 tax deductible donation will feed a senior for a month. For more information please call 949/470-3062. Together we can give our seniors the quality of life they deserve. Your contribution is greatly appreciated. Happy holidays!
