Holiday Wish List Guidelines
Please work with the older adult to identify 3–5 holiday gifts or personal items that would bring comfort, joy, or practical assistance during the holiday season.
Wish lists may include clothing, pajamas, slippers, blankets, personal care products, household essentials, books, puzzles, hobby supplies, and other reasonably priced gifts. Grocery, pharmacy, and general merchandise gift cards are also welcome.
Nonperishable food and pantry essentials may be requested in addition to the 3–5 gift items. These may include canned goods, soups, pasta, rice, cereal, oatmeal, coffee, tea, and favorite shelf-stable snacks.
Please provide specific descriptions, clothing sizes, preferred colors, and other details that will help sponsors select appropriate items. Include any relevant food allergies or dietary preferences when requesting groceries.
To ensure requests remain appropriate for the program, please do not include cash, prescription medications, alcohol, tobacco products, weapons, or high-cost electronics.
Please note: All wish lists are reviewed by Circle of Care St. Louis. Requested items are subject to sponsor availability and cannot be guaranteed.
