Volunteers make sure hundreds of Pinellas County seniors spend Christmas with gifts
CLEARWATER, Fla. - Pinellas County-based organization "Silver Santas" delivered 1,254 gift bags to 40 different senior living facilities on Christmas Day.
"It’s above and beyond what I ever expected. I didn’t expect anything," said Cynthia "CC" Casterella, a resident at Grand Villa Senior Living in Clearwater.
The Silver Santas find seniors in the area who are isolated or are low-income and bring them some unexpected surprises for the holidays.
It’s a Christmas miracle for many, but, the organization says there are up to 6,000 seniors who could benefit from this program.
