The Season of Giving at Oakmont Senior LivingHappy holidays from Oakmont! We hope you are enjoying this time of year with your family and friends. During the season of giving, Oakmont communities seek out opportunities to give back to those in need. Many Oakmont communities are hosting toy drives to collect gifts for children who might not otherwise receive presents during the holidays. Others have opted to collect gifts for seniors in need. Some communities are holding coat drives to keep families warm during the colder winter months. Others have scheduled visits at their local veterans hospitals and will deliver handmade holiday cards and homemade cookies to patients. Our Oakmont residents are creative and compassionate in their service. We hope that you join them in spreading holiday cheer this year!

Oakmont of Redding residents collected donations for the local chapter of the American Cancer Society Gift Shop.
