Hi friends! We need your help!

We're getting ready to start planning resident Christmas gifts at The Pines of Olean Nursing Home, and our Friends organization is hosting a Tailgate Basket Raffle this September to help make the holidays special for our residents.

We're looking for basket donations from local families, businesses, and community members to help make this fundraiser a success. Every basket donated helps us raise money to purchase Christmas gifts for the residents.

If you or your business would be willing to donate a themed basket, items for a basket, a monetary donation for us to create one on your behalf, or a gift certificate, we would be so grateful! Please reach out to Tammy Reynolds at The Pines of Olean or message us here on Facebook if you're interested. As The Friends organization is a registered nonprofit, donation acknowledgment letters are available for tax purposes upon request. More information about the raffle details will be announced in the upcoming weeks but we are hoping to receive all donated baskets by August 14th, so we have a few weeks to run the raffle prior to drawing our winners!

The Friends organization is a nonprofit group whose sole mission is supporting the residents of The Pines. Every dollar raised goes directly toward making life a little brighter for them.

Thank you for always supporting our community and helping us make the holidays extra special for our residents.

Each of the items was hand crafted by the gals, the extremely colorful background pieces were hand painted and our sunflowers created with beautiful shades of cardstock.

"Moments in Bloom"

National Nursing Home week is upon us shortly and the Crafty Crew has been very busy creating our new mantle! Really, an Art Gallery installation! We worked with beautiful, heavy, crepe paper to create our larger than life, fleurs. Mason jars were used to create our smaller roses and a few seed pods mixed in. The photographs were taken by Bob Crandall, with a little direction from Laurie Donner! On the bottom we created watercolor flowers torn and layered to make bouquets to round out our display!

Stay tuned for our fun filled Nursing Home Week- May 10th- 16th!
