Silver Santas Program – How it works

Silver Santas is a grassroots project that provides gifts during the holiday season to isolated and low-income seniors through Providers such as assisted living communities, senior housing (HUD) communities and at home by Guardians or Professional Caregivers.  For individuals in a nursing home we invite you to submit those names to the Be a Santa to a Senior program - click here for more information https://www.beasantatoasenior.com/



1. The needy seniors who are in danger of being forgotten this holiday season are identified by professional Guardians, Case/Social Workers, Senior Community/Activity Directors, and other professionals who work for Providers serving the senior population.  These names can be submitted between September 10 - October 18 - see the link below to submit a gift recipient name.

2. Gift tags for the recipients are placed on trees at various locations in Pinellas County starting November 1, 2021.  Kind “Silver Santa Shoppers” select a tag and go shopping!

3. Once items are purchased, the Silver Santa Shopper takes the items (Gift Bags are provided), along with the gift tag, back to the place where they picked up the tag, or to the alternate location printed on the tag by December 3, 2021.
