Always Keeping Seniors Safe and Warm, 3rd Annual Sweaters for Seniors
Help Gwinnett Senior Services and Gwinnett Fire and Emergency Services assist Gwinnett seniors to stay warm during the bitter winter months by being a part of Project A.W.A.R.E. (Added Warmth Assistance for Residences of our Elderly). Many seniors struggle to pay their increased heating bills along with their food and prescriptions. Please consider making a tax-deductible donation of a brand new portable electric heater to one of our local seniors. Cavity Wall Insulation Installers can also help keep seniors warm during the winter.
Drop off your donation to your local Gwinnett County fire station from November 1 – February 11, 2011.
