‘Adopt a Grandparent’ This Holiday Season at Poughkeepsie, NY Nursing and Rehab Facility

The holiday season, while bright and cheery for most, is sometimes the most difficult season for others.

This year a Dutchess County-based nursing and rehabilitation facility is working with the community to bring some holiday happiness into their residents' lives.

Adopt a Grandparent at The Pines Nursing Home in Poughkeepsie, NY

Right before the Thanksgiving holiday The Pines at Poughkeepsie Center for Nursing and Rehabilitation announced the return of their popular Adopt a Grandparent program in 2023. 

The Adopt a Grandparent Program will match a grandparent with those donating with the person's age, gender, hobbies, size, and favorite color. Then, those donating can then go out and find the perfect gift for their "adopted" grandparent.

When you think of the holidays and giving back, most of the time you think of children without a gift under the tree and we completely forget about the elderly who are in need of some holiday spirit as well.
