🎁✨ Be a Santa to a Senior® – Comox Valley ✨🎁
The little things mean the most at the holidays — a cozy blanket, a favourite book, or a handwritten card that says “You’re remembered.” 💜
This season, Home Instead invites our community to help spread joy to local seniors in need through Be a Santa to a Senior® (BASTAS).
Now in its 4th year here in the Comox Valley, this heartfelt program helps brighten the holidays for older adults who may be alone or facing hardship during the season.
🎄 How to take part (November 1 – December 12, 2025):
1️⃣ Pick up a gift tag from one of our Be a Santa to a Senior trees:
🏠 Home Instead Office – 130B 19th St, Courtenay
💆 Sereia Day Spa - 2002B Comox Ave, Comox
🌿 Broken Squirrel Wellness – 445 10th St, Courtenay
🎨 Pearl Ellis Gallery – 1729 Comox Ave, Comox
2️⃣ Purchase the gift listed on the tag.
3️⃣ Return it with the tag attached to the same location.
💌 Add a handwritten card or note if you can — your words mean more than you know!
💖 Prefer we shop for you?
Send an Interac e-Transfer to :

📝 In the message field, include:

Every dollar goes directly toward a gift for a local senior in need. If donations exceed one gift, we combine them to fulfill even more wishes. 🎁
Together, we can make sure every senior knows they are remembered, valued, and loved this holiday season. ❤️
