Do you want to be an elf too? Join us in Elves For Elders

Elves who join Partners In Care become a part of our Member Care Program, making a difference while combating social isolation and promoting social engagement.

Elves are people like YOU. They sprinkle a little holiday magic and warmth to older adults in the PIC community.

What do elves do?

• Elves can donate or deliver stockings.
• Elves decorate (or even make) stockings. We recommend using a standard size stocking that measures about 16 inches. Some elves use large 9+-inch gift bags.
• Elves can fill a stocking with things like night lights, unscented toiletries, scarves, gloves, puzzles, magazines, kitchen towels, magnifying/ reading tools, stationary, pill boxes and anything the holiday inspires. Creative elves, come join the fun.

Please clearly label each stocking or gift bag to indicate whether it is for a female, male, or is gender-neutral. For gender-neutral gifts, ensure that the items are appropriate for both males and females. Attach a removable note or label to each stocking or gift bag, specifying whether a gift card is included. All items must be new, and please check expiration dates where applicable. Fill your stocking or gift bag with the same care and thoughtfulness you would give to a friend or family member.
