| LIFE IN SOLERA | JANUARY 2024 | 33
The Sunshine Club members were busy little elves
during December. Several of our members shopped
and wrapped gifts for two special children provided
by Winter Wish. In addition, all the elves gathered for
a light lunch and to fill 30 Christmas stockings for sleigh delivery
to the Ronald McDonald House. This wonderful charity provides a
place where families can stay while their child is receiving critical
care at a local hospital. They are provided with a place to sleep, meals,
and playtime for their other children. We are sure the stockings will
put smiles on the children's faces and provide them with some fun
activities! In addition to these elf activities, we continued
our cards, calls, and visits for Solera residents.
Recycling makes all this possible! Please continue your
generous donations of plastic bottles and aluminum cans
with CA-CRV or CA CASH REFUND. These items can be deposited
in the gated area next to the Mail Room.
Please feel free to join us at our next meeting on the third
Wednesday of the month from 1 to 2 pm in the Arts & Crafts Room.
If you have any questions, please contact Diane Coffman at (949)
295-1097 or Kathy Marchi at (714) 600-6394.
SUNSHINE CLUB
Sunshine Helpers Needed!
Chronic illnesses, hospitalization, and/or death can hit people hard. If you have a friend or neighbor
here in Solera who needs a spark of sunshine, let members of the Sunshine Club know. For your
convenience, the yellow Sunshine Box is located on the table in the Mail Room where you can drop
off the information for a resident or residents who are sick or have experienced a death in the family.
Sometimes just a card or telephone call will brighten someone's day immensely.
