This is a well-known charity event that targets often neglected seniors from all over the Czech Republic.
Mr. President has granted us a sum of money to fulfill wishes up to the value of a beautiful 15.000 CZK. For this amount we granted wishes to fifteen seniors from various facilities in our region who no longer have anyone or cannot buy the item for financial reasons.
What did the seniors wish for? Among the gifts, three times repeated electric beard shavers for Mr. Antonín, Mr. Jaroslav and Mr. Jiří. Mr. Radomir wished for a hair clipper, Mrs. Vincencia for a wall clock, Mr. Peter for a men's cosmetic package and a crossword puzzle. Mrs Vlasta a dia package, Mr Emil and Mrs Blanka radios and Mr Ladislav a radio player and headphones. A group of seniors from Alzeimer home wanted a packet of sweets for their tea session, Mrs Zdenka a chocolate fountain for her home, Mr Zdenek a cosmetics packet and Mrs Kristina a bubble bath for her feet. We completed the packages with sweets, Mobis gingerbread and Christmas cards.
Next year we will be "Santa's grandchildren" again and we are looking forward to it.
