Atlanta, GA – The Georgia Department of Human Services’ (DHS) Division of Aging Services (DAS) is collecting holiday gifts for the more than 1,300 older Georgians and adults with disabilities who are under guardianship as part of the annual Light Up the Holidays gift drive. These adults may be residents of long-term care communities, have low incomes, or no family or friends in their lives to celebrate the holidays with, and your generosity makes all the difference.

There are two ways to get involved: 

  • Buy items from our Amazon Gift List which contains a variety of requested wish list items.
  • Reach out to the DAS Gift Drift Coordinator at [email protected] to sponsor an individual wish list and learn more about how to donate. 

Gifts are due by Wednesday, Nov. 27, 2024. To learn more about DAS’s Light Up the Holidays Gift Drive and the difference you can make in someone’s life this holiday season, please visit aging.georgia.gov/get-involved/sponsor-vulnerable-georgian.
