Through Senior Santa, Cobb Senior Services staff are collecting donations until Nov. 18.

The money will provide a holiday luncheon, entertainment and gifts (including medical equipment and small appliances) for caregivers and senior clients.

What You Can Do to Help:

Adopt a Senior: Companies, organizations and individuals will receive a "wish list" for a senior citizen and purchase those items. CSS staff will deliver the gifts to the caregiver and client.

Donate Gift Certificates: These gift certificates offer the freedom and independence for senior citizens to purchase items such as medicines, toiletries and clothing - essential items they often are unable to purchase on their limited incomes.

Make a Financial Donation: These donations are used by CSS to purchase special requests that might not be filled through regular holiday donations.

  • Donate online at CobbSeniors.org.
  • Mail donations to Attn: LaTronda Andrews-Perry, Cobb Senior Services, P.O. Box 649, Marietta GA 30061.

Information: LaTronda Andrews-Perry at 770-528-5368 or latronda.andrews-perry@CobbCounty.org, facebook.com/CobbSeniors
