Nursing Home Santa Claus 2017

Donation protected
This is a charity to raise funds to give nursing home residents in Oxford and Charleston, Ms a Christmas they'll never forget. You can join the charity by joining the FB group Oxford Christmas for Nursing Home Residents. We have members from all over the state and in 7 other states who participate. Please tell your friends, church members, coworkers, and family to join. This will be the 6th year to be Santa Claus to these nursing home residents who have so little. Many are without family and feel so alone. This is the one time of the year some of them may feel loved knowing someone is there to fulfill all their wishes and needs. I wish all of you could see the tears I witness and disbelief that a complete stranger would meet these needs. This charity will be completed in two nursing homes this year, so any donation will be greatly appreciated! I hope to raise enough money for the BIG items. The dentures, the hearing aids, prosthetics, and the TVs that are large enough for them to see. I also raise funds to issue each resident cash. They have about $25 a month after the bills are paid. I was able to raise enough to give them $5 in 2015 and $15 last year. My goal is $20 this year. I've seen the money used for a perm, for cokes from the vending machine, to order a pizza, and as a gift to a grandchild. Let's play Santa and lavish them in gifts and love!!
