The Gilbert Chamber Foundation organized its 14th Annual Adopt-a-Senior program benefiting homebound and income challenged seniors in the Gilbert area.
This year’s donors came together to adopt and fulfill 99 wishlists for the residents of Page Commons and seniors of Meals on Wheels. Through our Chamber Connections Holiday Party, we raised over $3,100 to benefit the adopt-a-senior program. Through this, we hosted a holiday breakfast at Page Commons and gave away 100 raffle prizes to residents. Raffle prizes consisted of many necessities the residents needed, including cookware, toiletries, clothing, puzzles, games, and gift cards ranging from $10-$100. We thank everyone who made this possible. The generosity of our community helped make this program a success.
