Forgotten Angels Stocking Stuffers Drive

December 5, 2022 - December 14, 2022

FORGOTTEN ANGELS 2022
Guess what time it is?? It’s time for some enjoyment and FUN!! The Forgotten
Angels Project is kicking off its 16th year. We serve residents that live in
“Personal Care Homes”. They are usually younger and sometimes suffer with
mental illness rather than physical limitations.
We focus on this group of residents
because they seem to be most forgotten by friends, family and society.
You may be asking “How does this work?” We ask residents what is one wish,
($25.00 and under) that they want.
We place the anonymous Forgotten Angel on
the tree and people from the community come to the PADD office and obtain a
Forgotten Angel (or several) off the tree.
You can also call or email us and we can
send angels to you.
The Stocking Stuffer list is on the back of this letter. Most of our residents love
snacks. Stocking Stuffers are generally all sorts of snacks, stationary, socks,
gloves and personal hygiene items. Many people load a large Christmas bag full of
these extra goodies along with the personal wish requested and return it to the
PADD office where all the gifts are bagged by PADD staff and volunteers. Some
people choose to bring in donations from the list or make monetary donations. We
ask that all gifts be returned, unwrapped, to the PADD office, no later than
Wednesday, December 14th, 2022.
As the holiday season approaches, we hope that you will help us provide a touch of
joy to those in need. It is truly amazing to see how our community gets involved in
giving so much to these Forgotten Angels. Each year, as the donations begin to
pour in, I am blessed at your generosity. I am very proud to be a part of this
community and look forward to serving our Forgotten Angels in 2022 with your help.
