Forgotten Angels 2022

Guess what time it is??  It’s time for some enjoyment and FUN!!  The Forgotten Angels Project is kicking off its 16th year.  We serve residents that live in Personal Care Homes.  They are usually younger and sometimes suffer with mental illness rather than physical limitations.  We focus on this group of residents because they seem to be most forgotten by friends, family and society.

You may be asking how this works.  We ask residents what is one wish they want that is $25.00 and under.  We place the anonymous name and wish of the Forgotten Angel on the tree. Individuals and groups from the community come to the PeADD office and obtain a Forgotten Angel (or several) off the tree.  You can also call or email us and we can send angels to you.

The Stocking Stuffer list is below.  Most of our residents love snacks. Stocking Stuffers are generally all sorts of snacks, stationary, socks, gloves and personal hygiene items.  Many people load a large Christmas bag full of these extra goodies along with the personal wish requested by the angel and return it to the PeADD office where all the gifts are bagged by PeADD staff and volunteers.  Some people choose to bring in donations from the list or make monetary donations. We ask that all gifts be returned, unwrapped, to the PeADD office, no later than Wednesday, December 14th, 2022.

As the holiday season approaches, we hope that you will help us provide a touch of joy to those in need.  It is truly amazing to see how our community gets involved in giving so much to these Forgotten Angels.
