Allen S., 86, Catasauqua, PA

April 5, 2022/in Open Wishes/by Michelle Bowren

Allen began coaching when his sons played sports. He was a baseball coach and treasurer for his local Little League and a football coach for 20 years. He remained coaching even after his sons were grown because he saw the challenges the youth endured and wanted to be a positive role model. Recently, Allen was hospitalized for an illness. During that time his dentures were accidentally thrown away. He and his wife live on a fixed income and cannot afford to replace them at this time. Please donate to help raise $1,850 to grant his wish to have his dentures replaced.

Sherry D., 75, Philadelphia, PA

April 5, 2022/in Open Wishes/by Michelle Bowren

For over 30 years, Sherry and her husband lived in low-income senior housing because her husband was employed there. During this time, she volunteered many hours with the seniors there, helping with fundraising, crafts, knitting and caring for the other residents. Sadly, Sherry lost her husband two years ago to COVID. For many years, they would spend a week in Long Beach Island with their family. Her daughter continues this tradition, renting a home for the week. Sherry’s wish is to have a family portrait taken on the beach during this year’s vacation, something she cannot afford on her own. We would also like to purchase a few gift cards so that she can shop at Bay Village while there. We need to raise $1,000 to make her wish come true. Please donate today!

Palm Garden Nursing Home, Clearwater, FL

January 10, 2022/in Open Wishes/by Michelle Bowren

Many long term care facilities have a limited budget for their activities departments. It can be challenging to find ways to keep their seniors connected and stimulated, especially during this pandemic. The residents at Palm Garden wish to have some new large print reading books, some hand held radios and seven tablets. The tablets would not only be used to play games, but allow residents who live far from loved ones to video chat. This will help with feelings of isolation. We need to raise $1,600 to make these wishes come true. Please donate today!
