Santa for Seniors: Partnering with First Team Subaru for Homebound Seniors

Norfolk, Va. (Oct. 18, 2023) – Senior Services of Southeastern Virginia (Senior Services) has joined forces with First Team Subaru Norfolk to gather donations of holiday wish-list items destined for home-bound older adults within our community. These sought-after items include mini coffee makers, alarm clocks, slippers, robes, washcloths, magnetic belts, shoe horns, reacher grabbers, blankets/throws, and over-neck reading lights.

Steve Zollos, the CEO of Senior Services of Southeastern Virginia, expressed his gratitude for the partnership, saying, “Senior Services is delighted to collaborate with First Team Subaru Norfolk to bring some holiday cheer to our homebound older adults. ‘Santa for Seniors’ not only provides the community with a wonderful opportunity to give back during the holiday season but also raises awareness about the critical issue of older adult hunger in our local communities.”

Senior Services is a proud partner of Meals on Wheels of America, offering weekly meals to as many as 500 older adults in South Hampton Roads and Western Tidewater, but many Hampton Roads seniors still need food. To learn more, visit www.ssseva.org/meals/.

Wish-list donations will be accepted at the First Team Subaru Norfolk location starting on October 1, 2023. Alternatively, donors can bring their contributions to the “Santa for Seniors” donation day:

Date: December 9, 2023
