The difference is that the gifts are for the elderly who are either struggling financially, are homebound, live alone or are alone for the holidays. How Does It Work? 1) Stop by the Cary Senior Center and select a Senior tree ornament off the tree in the lobby. 2) Purchase item(s) listed. 3) Bring ornament and labeled unwrapped gifts back to the Cary Senior Center by/before Monday, December 14.
