For over 20 years, we’ve brightened the holidays for seniors
in our local communities through our holiday gift program.
Help make a senior’s holiday special!
Our Referral Partners, local facilities and senior service organizations, identify seniors who may not receive gifts this holiday season.
Gift requests are turned into tags, placed on public trees, and shared with Program Partners (businesses and organizations who commit to sponsoring 10+ seniors).
Once purchased and wrapped, gifts are returned to the location where the tag was obtained; we collect the gift bags for delivery to their recipients by the organizations who enrolled them in our program.
Key Dates:
Gift tags available from November 15th until they are gone!
Gifts due: December 6

What You Do
Find a tree location most convenient to you.
Pick a Request Tag: Choose a tag with a senior's holiday wish(es).
Shop for Gifts: Purchase new items* that match the tag.
Bag the Gifts: Place the gifts in a holiday gift bag and securely attach the tag where it's visible.
Return the Gift: Bring the bagged gift back to where you got your tag(s) by December 6.
We Deliver: Karis Care Services will ensure your gift is delivered by Christmas Day.
*Gift requests come from local older adult service agencies. If you can’t afford all the items on the tag, prioritize the pricier one or choose a simpler tag. Every tag represents a real person, and this is their only holiday gift.
