SilverTree Seniors

Helping Seniors In Need

Showing Hampton Roads' Seniors They Are Not Forgotten
A nonprofit 501(c)(3)

Our Story

In 2018, a group of friends got together and adopted nine Seniors in the Hampton Roads area, delivering gifts of joy during the holidays. The impact on us, as well as the Seniors receiving the gifts, was so tremendous.  After hearing over and over "it often seems like Seniors are forgotten", it was obvious we needed to do more to reach as many Seniors as possible.  We made the decision to formalize and expand our efforts in 2019 and beyond.

SilverTree Seniors is an independent 501 (c)(3) non-profit dedicated to fulfilling wish lists and providing everyday necessities to Seniors in need. We accomplish this with donations received through drives and drop-off locations, as well as monetary donations made by individuals and Community Partners. We collaborate and partner with Local Agencies to select and deliver the gifts to those in need.

We, along with our amazing Hampton Roads Community, will make sure Seniors know they are NOT forgotten.

Adopt a Community Shopping Event

SilverTree Seniors and the Chesapeake Task Force on Aging Adopt a Community Shopping Event at Kemet House

Oh my!  Shopping bags and hearts were full this Saturday, when SilverTree Seniors, along with the Chesapeake Task Force on Aging, co-hosted a Holiday Shopping Event at Kemet House, an affordable, older adult (62+) community, located in Chesapeake.  Through the donations STS has received from our "Christmas in July" and "Warm Hearts & Hands" Drives, the residents of Kemet House were able to "shop" from a large variety of items ranging from toiletries and necessities to games and puzzle books, and everything in between!   Each resident was provided with a beautiful handmade holiday card, crafted with love by Girl Scout Troop 4075.  The cards were stuffed full of "fun money", allowing each resident to shop from five different categories of items, while enjoying donuts and coffee, donated by WaWa.  Reusable shopping bags were  provided by The Supply Room.  The City of Chesapeake's Human Services , Community Programs Division brought bags of swag and city resources for the residents.

There were laughs, a few tears, and LOTS of love shared by all.  

We wanted to take the time to thank our Community Partners and friends of SilverTree Seniors who made this all possible.  As you may know, this is our inaugural year and we are overjoyed at the support we have received from so many sharing our vision and mission of letting Seniors know they are NOT forgotten.

A few companies and organizations we'd like to give a shout out to...The YMCA of South Hampton Roads, Windy City Pizza, MyStorage, Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Towne Realty's Chesapeake Office, Lawrence Pharmacy, and the Niners Seniors Club of Chesapeake.

Thank you to our volunteers from the Chesapeake Task Force on Aging!

We're busy working on our next project.  Stay tuned for details!
