The Amherstburg Community Services is looking to help seniors this upcoming holiday season.
It has launched its "Stuff-a-Stocking" for Seniors program which is an annual campaign aimed at giving a gift to isolated seniors living in Amherstburg, LaSalle, Harrow and McGregor.
Donations of socks, gloves, treats, home-made cards and hygienic essentials are needed and will be collected until December 9th.
Community Awareness Co-ordinator Austin Tyrrell says for many seniors the organization helps, these are the only gifts they get year round.
"Nobody should feels lonely during the holidays," says Tyrrell. "In many cases, seniors are recognized as some of the most vulnerable groups for facing loneliness and isolation."
Donations can be dropped off at the ACS offices in Amherstburg (179 Victoria St)
