Corey Rust, owner of Envi Adventures, hopes to fill a plane with gifts for homebound elderly this holiday season.
On Sat., Dec. 5, Corey invites people to bring new, unwrapped gifts for older adults to help Fill the Plane at the Troutdale Airport, 1350 NW Perimeter Way in Troutdale, between 9 a.m. and noon. Then the airplane will fly between Troutdale and Pearson Airfield in Vancouver. Clark County residents are invited to bring gifts to Pearson at 1010 E Reserve Street in Vancouver, between 1 and 4 p.m.
Rust will then return to Troutdale with his plane full of gifts for seniors. All gifts will be distributed to homebound seniors later in December.
Suggested gifts include pajamas, fleece blankets, socks, postage stamps, puzzle books and large-print books. For more information, visit www.mowp.org.
About Meals on Wheels People
Meals on Wheels People has been changing lives, one meal at a time, since 1970. The organization provides more than a meal to thousands of older adults in the greater Portland metro area. The service not only alleviates hunger and social isolation, but allows seniors to live independently with dignity in their own homes. Aging in place reduces depression, falls and hospitalization as well as the high cost of institutional care. For more information, visit: mowp.org.
