I have a friend who referred me to Smiles. They were very prompt on getting back to me. Not only were they prompt , they put smiles on our residents and staff faces for Valentines day. They delivered lots of chocolates! She was ready to open this box of chocolates but I told her I needed a picture first :)

As a caregiver for elderly clients in their homes and independent living facilities, I can attest to the loneliness and feelings of being forgotten in todays society. This is a non profit I admire for the smiles and love they provide to some of the most vulnerable members of our society. Keep up the great work!

Fantastic nonprofit. I have helped with their deliveries a few times and it's always wonderful to see the Seniors' faces when we arrive. This is a nonprofit that truly makes a difference in the lives of their clients.

What Barb has done not only in the past with caring for her Mom and her everyday needs and wants but with her non profits is amazing. The time and effort she puts in to the care of others just to see a smile on someone's face is selfless. Keep up the amazing work!

I’ve enjoyed watching this organization grow over the past 5 years from a Christmas drive of 35 gifts to helping nearly 500 seniors have their wish lists fulfilled. The seniors are remembered each holiday with treat bags. It’s an amazing organization remembering those often forgotten.

This is a great new organization. I’ve assisted with several social events for seniors at a wonderful local nursing home; very worthwhile. The organization has also provided holiday themed food and gifts for residents at two nursing homes in our area. I’m very proud to assist with this mission.

So glad to be able to spread smiles to people often forgotten or have no one to do special things for them. The pictures and stories of the joy spread always makes my day!

Some of these people have no one and its so rewarding to help put a smile on their faces. My favorites are the ones from Lady of the Woods. They are so happy everytime we send a care package and it feels so good to be part of it.

I'm honored to support this organization. Providing gifts and snacks to these seniors is my way of honoring my own parents who are both gone. Such a wonderful group - the seniors and the volunteers!
