More than three million people spend
their holidays confined to institutions. Many have outlived
their relatives and friends. Others live far away from
their loved ones. At the holiday season, many people who
are confined experience a deep sense of loss and feel
particularly alone and forgotten.
At the same time, many individuals
in our community search for opportunities to make their
holiday season more meaningful- ways in which they can
rediscover the true spirit of the holidays.
It's about people, being with people.
The Holiday Project is a national nonprofit
organization of volunteers that provides leadership and
guidance and creates opportunities for volunteers to do
visits.
The Holiday Project provides an opportunity
for everyone. Those who visit are deeply touched by the
experience. All participants equally share the gift of
being together. In the Holiday Project, everybody wins.
We have visits starting December 6,
2008
