Be a 'Holiday Angel' for a Local Elder in Need This Holiday Season

Forsyth County Senior Services invites residents to participate in the 2025 Holiday Gift Angels, Meal Sponsorship and Senior Support Programs throughout the holiday season.

Holiday Gift Angels Program: Personalized gift request tags containing the name of an older adult resident as well as a gift list of basic needs and personal items are available for participants to select and provide by:

  1. Picking up a gift request tag at Central Park (2300 Keith Bridge Road, Cumming 30040) or Sexton Hall (2115 Chloe Road, Cumming 30041). Participants can also request a gift tag by contacting Senior Services at (770) 781-2178 or by emailing seniorservices@forsythco.com. Gift Angels are available at both centers now.
  2. Acquire gifts.
  3. Bring the unwrapped gifts in a gift bag with the gift request tag attached to Central Park or Sexton Hall during business hours by Friday, Dec. 5.

Meal Sponsorship: Those interested in purchasing a nutritious holiday meal and friendly visit/safety check to a local homebound older adult may choose to provide meals for a day, week, month or year. The cost for a meal certificate is $5 for one day, $25 for one week, $100 for one month and $1,200 for an entire year. Other donation amounts are also accepted and will be put toward this program. Holiday meals will be delivered from Thanksgiving Day until New Year’s Day.

Senior Support Program: Donations to this program will assist low-income, isolated elders with essential needs such as food, housing support, safety modifications and medical equipment. Donations are accepted year-round at both Forsyth County Senior Services centers located at Central Park and Sexton Hall.

Checks for the Meal Sponsorship and Senior Support Program should be made payable to Forsyth County Senior Services (FCSS) Holiday Giving Program and may be delivered to:

2115 Chloe Road
Cumming, GA 30041
