DOTHAN, Ala. — The Dothan Area Misfits and Wiregrass Gives will host a community yard sale Saturday, Oct. 18, from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. at 843 Oppert Road in Dothan.
All proceeds from the event will benefit the “Christmas for Seniors” project, which aims to bring holiday joy to residents of Extendicare Health Center.
Funds raised will help purchase much-needed items for the seniors, including hygiene supplies, socks, blankets, tissues, chapstick and crossword puzzles. Volunteers will also spend time at Extendicare frosting cookies, singing carols, decorating rooms and sharing Christmas cheer with the residents.
Organizers said the event is part of a larger community effort to ensure no senior feels forgotten during the holiday season. “Every dollar helps bring joy to a resident of Extendicare this Christmas,” the groups said in a joint statement.
