Though the holiday season is supposed to be happy and joyous, many seniors spend this time of year alone. By donating to the Silver Stars program, you can help spread holiday cheer to these senior residents when they need it most.
Over the past 10 years, the Silver Stars Holiday Program, as an extension of the Cowboy Santas Program, Inc., has served more than than 3,000 homebound and/or isolated seniors. The program ensures that Tarrant County seniors are remembered during the holidays by delivering care packages that include an assortment of health and safety items, stocking stuffers and community resource materials
