More Than a Stocking. A Moment of Connection.
Christmas Stockings for Seniors is a Utah County community project founded in 2017. With the help of volunteers, schools, local businesses, and neighbors, we share Christmas stockings with seniors living in skilled nursing, assisted living, and independent living communities, as well as those served by senior centers.
Each stocking is a simple way to say: you matter, you are valued, and you are not forgotten.

The Heart of Christmas Stockings for Seniors
Our holiday artwork celebrates the people we serve and the community that makes every stocking possible.
Our community in action
Volunteers & Memories Through the Years
Every stocking carries the kindness of people who donate, volunteer, visit, and help make the holidays brighter for our seniors. Here are a few moments from years past.
2020 · Christmas During COVID
In 2020, COVID-19 changed the way we delivered Christmas cheer. Our volunteers wore masks, practiced social distancing, and organized drive-through stocking drop-offs to help keep seniors and volunteers safe. Although we couldn’t celebrate together in the usual way, we still found a way to share kindness, joy, and the Christmas spirit. The pandemic changed how we delivered Christmas, but it never changed why we did it.
Thank you to every volunteer, family, business, and community partner who has shared the joy.
