Senior gala
My name is Cheryl Campbell and I am the founder of the Christmas Gala, a 501c3 nonprofit organization that assists seniors who have limited financial resources. This assistance is provided via our collaboration with social workers and other agencies, whereby we fill seniors’ requests, ranging from basic care to emergency needs. The requests are brought to us when other agencies cannot fill them and no family member will/can provide assistance. Frequently, we address requests involving health or life safety issues. In these situations, we can supply seniors with medical devices their insurance doesn’t cover, home repairs, personal care items, etc.
In order to fund programs for our aging community, The Christmas Gala needs financial support throughout the year to help seniors who can no longer provide for themselves, and instead, rely on us for help to maintain their quality of life.
Each year, The Christmas Gala purchases air conditioners for the elderly, which are very expensive because the units need to meet specifications and prices range from $525.00 to $600.00 per unit. This is added to additional costs for requests submitted year round.
We are asking that you support this fundraiser and help us collect funds to purchase at least six air conditioners this year. Your monetary donation can be mailed to The Christmas Gala, 1228 Radcliffe Street, Bristol Pa 190007 or submitted via our website www.thechristmasgala.org by clicking the Donation button found there (no fees applied).
Thank you for your consideration of this request.
