CLOTHING AND NECESSITIES DRIVE FOR SENIOR CITIZENS

Some people celebrate Senior Citizens Day on August 14 as it was the day past US president Franklin Roosevelt signed the Social Security Act in 1935. However, in 1988 Ronald Reagan, who was the US president at the time, declared August 21 to be National Senior Citizens Day.  This observance was established in honor of senior citizens in the US who made positive contributions in their communities. The day was also created to bring awareness of social, health, and economic issues that affect senior citizens.

For the month of August, in recognition of Senior Citizens Day, Senior Care Group Foundation is holding a drive for clothing and necessities for seniors. Here are items on the wish list:

New or gently used clothes

New or gently used shoes

New socks (slip resistant)

Adult disposable briefs (sealed packages)

Pill boxes

Walkers, canes, wheelchairs

Razors

Art Supplies

Donations can be dropped off at Key West Health & Rehab, 5860 College Road, Key West, FL 33040
