Cornerstone at Milford ‘Stockings for Seniors’ event supports local seniors in need

To the Editor:

On behalf of Cornerstone at Milford, the staff and the residents, I would like to thank the businesses and organizations in Milford and the neighboring towns of Franklin, Bellingham, and Medway for their kind donations to our Stockings for Seniors event. It’s hard to believe, but Stockings for Seniors is in its 12th year. This annual event allows Cornerstone at Milford seniors to support their peers in our region, during what can be a challenging time of year.

Cornerstone at Milford originally developed this event around the holidays in the hopes of providing kindness, recognition, and love to those who may not have family nearby or may have experienced a loss this year. We distributed over 250 stockings filled with personal care items such as mittens, socks, hand lotion, lip balm, playing cards, and notebooks.

We want to extend a special thank you to everyone who generously supported us this year, whether you donated your time or items for distribution. We wish to thank Milford Senior Center Sewing Club, Tri-County Regional Vocational Technical High School, Rosemary Tsacoyianis-Centered Care Coaching by Ro, Amare-Lisa Wood, O'Malley Geropsychology (Kelly O’Malley, Owner), Bright Agency Insurance (Krishna Swanson), Realty One Group (Nancy Briggs and Martha Morese, Senior Realtor Specialists), Homefield Credit Union, Tri-County Regional Chamber of Commerce, ERA Key Realty in Milford, Jackie, Personal Aide. 

With gratitude,
