Holiday Gift Donations

Spread Holiday Cheer to Durham’s Seniors!

 

This season of giving, your thoughtful donation can brighten the holidays for local seniors through our Holiday Gift Program. Each gift you help us buy, wrap, and deliver brings joy, warmth, and connection to older adults who may otherwise feel alone during the holidays.

Adopt a Route

Make spirits bright—one route at a time!

Grant the wishes of our seniors by sponsoring gifts for an entire delivery route or share the joy by adopting part of one. 

Email MOWD’s Operations & Logistics Lead, Abagail Dawkins, at abagail@mowdurham.org to receive a list of the gifts our seniors have selected. Then choose how you’d like to give:

  • Donate and we’ll purchase and wrap the gifts for you, or
  • Shop from our Amazon Wish List and have the gifts delivered to wrap yourself.

Once you receive your client list, we’ll share our Amazon Wish List with you to make giving easy, joyful, and full of holiday cheer!
