Celebrate the Holiday Spirit at Encore: Senior Santa Giving Tree and Santa Letters
The holiday season is all about joy, love, and the spirit of giving, and at Encore Assisted Living and Memory Care, we’re bringing all of that to life with our Senior Santa Giving Tree and a magical Santa Letters mailbox! These cherished traditions are not just about gifts—they’re about creating moments of happiness and connection for our residents and the community.
At Encore, we take pride in being more than just a place to live—we’re a family. Our residents are at the heart of everything we do, and these initiatives are a way for all of us—family, friends, staff, and the larger community—to come together and celebrate the season of giving.
Santa Letters: Bring the Magic of Christmas Home!
Santa’s mailbox is open and ready for your holiday wishes! Children (and the young at heart) can drop off their letters to Santa and receive a personalized reply straight to their home.
Details:
- Location: Encore Assisted Living and Memory Care, 13798 Cygnus Drive, Orlando, FL 32828
- Deadline: Drop off your letters through December 23rd by 5 PM.
Don’t forget to include your return address so Santa knows where to send his reply!
How You Can Get Involved in the Senior Santa Giving Tree
The Senior Santa Giving Tree is a fun and simple way to give back this holiday season. When you visit Encore, you’ll see our festive tree in the lobby, decorated with ornaments. Each ornament holds a special wish from one of our seniors. These wishes range from everyday essentials to items that add a little extra joy to their lives, like cozy socks, body lotion, or even art supplies for creative minds.
Here’s how you can join the fun:
- Pick an Ornament: Stop by Encore before December 19th and select an ornament from the tree.
- Grant a Wish: Shop for the item listed on the ornament.
- Wrap with Love: Return the wrapped gift with the ornament attached to Encore by December 20th.
It’s that easy—and your thoughtful gift will make someone’s holiday a little brighter.
What’s on the Wish List?
Our seniors’ wish list includes a variety of items that are both practical and fun, such as:
- Shampoo, body wash, and lotion
- Non-slippery socks and slippers
- Fashion jewelry and body sprays
- Watercolor paints, brushes, and canvases
- Puzzles (300–500 pieces)
- Baby clothes
These are small things that can bring so much joy and comfort to our residents, many of whom love a mix of practical gifts and creative surprises!
