Our 18th annual partnership with the Cambridge Police Department to collect gifts for Cambridge seniors was as festive as ever!
In collaboration with the Cambridge Police Department, MIT employees joined Cambridge residents and businesses to support the “Secret Santa for Seniors” gift drive. Now in its 18th year, the gift drive brings gifts and joy to seniors who may not have any remaining family members or loved ones nearby during the holiday season.
This program relies solely on generous donations from Cambridge businesses, residents, community members, and CPD employees, and MIT is always one of the biggest donors! Gift bags are organized and distributed to seniors throughout the city on the days leading up to Christmas to remind them that they are not forgotten.
We would like to thank our participating departments for a wonderful year of support and cheer!
