About the event
Help Compassion Advocacy Network ensure that older adults feel remembered, valued, and loved this Christmas.
For 17 years, CAN and the Taylor Bend Family YMCA have worked together through the Angel Tree program—a partnership established with Kelly Brinkman. In 2025, the community helped provide Christmas gifts to 150 seniors.
As CAN prepares to celebrate its 25th anniversary in 2027, we invite individuals, families, businesses, and community organizations to continue this meaningful tradition. Participants can adopt a senior, purchase requested gifts, volunteer with sorting and delivery, sponsor the program, or make a donation.
Every ornament represents a person. Every gift carries dignity, compassion, and the message that no senior has been forgotten.
