Total Budget: $1,880

Area of Focus: Community economic development

Activity Type: Community Development: Volunteer Services

Summary: We purchase holiday gifts, wrap them and distribute to 6;000 seniors in nursing facilities in Orange and Riverside County.


We are thrilled to announce our collaboration with the Council on Aging on the SmileMakers program, a heartwarming initiative designed to spread joy and warmth to the seniors in our community who might be experiencing feelings of isolation or loneliness.

The essence of the SmileMakers program lies in our commitment to personally select, wrap, and deliver holiday gifts to approximately 6,000 seniors residing in nursing facilities across Orange and Riverside Counties. We hold a firm belief that every individual, regardless of their age or background, is deserving of recognition and care, which in turn nurtures their mental well-being.

Our club takes immense pride in partnering with the Council on Aging to provide this vital service, reinforcing our dedication to making a meaningful difference in the lives of our community's seniors.
