Federation is drop site for Gifts for Seniors PDF Print E-mail
Gifts for Seniors collects donated gifts to distribute to the most isolated senior citizens who reside within the 12 Minnesota metropolitan counties. The gift program, now in its 14th year, collects gifts from Thanksgiving through New Year’s Day. Minnesota Senior Federation is a host site this year. There is a gift barrel in our St. Paul office. Bring in your unwrapped gift and take a moment to say hello to our staff.
 
It’s easy to donate. Contributions include unwrapped gifts, gift cards/certificates and checks made payable to Gifts for Seniors. It’s 100 percent tax deductible. Listen to KLBB Radio 1220 AM for gift ideas. Monetary items can be mailed to Gifts for Seniors, c/o MN Premier Publications, 1115 Hennepin Ave. S., Minneapolis MN 55403-1705. Or get the Gifts for Seniors “2007 brochure and wish list” and program details by visiting www.GiftsForSeniors.org or contacting Kristine at 612/348-5835 or
 
This program gives many people the satisfaction of giving to the community. Volunteers are needed during December and January at the program’s internal operation center in the Roseville area. Details about volunteer opportunities are also listed on the web site or you can contact Rosemary at 612/348-4749 or
 
As one of our collaborating agencies recently wrote, “To be remembered with a gift holds a deep and special meaning for these seniors.”
