Stockings For Seniors- North Bay

01/23/2026

It’s hard to believe it’s already been a month since we delivered our stockings to all of our care homes.

This past year brought an incredible amount of support, and we truly can’t thank everyone enough. Because of your generosity and kindness, we packed 461 stockings — something we are so grateful for and incredibly proud of.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you to everyone who helped make this possible.
Here are a few pictures from our deliveries this year — moments we’ll never forget. 🎄

🎄 Stockings Delivered! 🎄

All of our stockings have officially been delivered to all of our remaining homes!

On Friday, we dropped off 95 stockings to the residents of Nipissing Manor, and today we delivered 128 stockings to Eastholme. Our hearts are so full knowing these special deliveries brought some extra holiday cheer to so many seniors.

We’ll be sharing photos of some of our lovely seniors as soon as we can.
Until then, we want to send a big thank you to everyone who donated, supported, and volunteered their time to make this possible. We truly couldn’t have done it without you.

Wishing you all the very best and a very happy holidays!

Yesterday we had the pleasure of delivering 160 stockings to the Northern Heights Community Home. We are so grateful to everyone who helped make this possible.

Being able to bring smiles and holiday cheer to our seniors is truly special to us, and we wouldn’t be able to do it without the help of our amazing community.

✨ Stay tuned — we’ll be sharing special moments of the residents opening their gifts over the holidays. Thank you for helping us spread smiles this season! ✨

🎄✨ What an incredible day! ✨🎄

With the help of our amazing volunteers and Cascades Casino North Bay and Match Eatery & Public House - North Bay generously donating their space, we finished packing all of our stockings today 🎁

We started with a goal of 383 stockings—and not only did we meet it, we surpassed it by filling 461! That means every resident in our three homes will receive a stocking this year. Our extra 78 stockings were donated to the residents of Cassellholme Long-Term Care, helping spread even more holiday cheer 🎄✨

Thank you to everyone who helped make this possible. We couldn’t do this without you!

Not only will every resident receive a stocking this year, but each one will also include a book—a truly meaningful gift that will bring joy, comfort, and connection this holiday season.

We are so grateful for your continued support and kindness. 💙 🎄

Un grand merci à la classe de 2e/3e année de Mme Desormiers à l’école élémentaire catholique Holy Cross!

Hier, ces élèves extraordinaires ont fait don de 15 bas de Noël magnifiquement préparés pour l’initiative « Bas de Noël pour aînés », à laquelle prête main-forte. Les enfants ont même aidé à les charger dans le véhicule de police!
