BROCKTON AND PLYMOUTH- Staff at Old Colony Elder Services (OCES), the largest provider of in-home and community-based services for older adults and people living with disabilities in Southeastern Massachusetts, are supporting those in need of assistance by providing food, gifts and other essential items during the holiday season.
OCES staff participated in the “Adopt-a-Family” program at My Brother’s Keeper in Easton. The team purchased gifts of clothing, toys and games for five families and then volunteered onsite to wrap gifts.
To fight food insecurity in the community, OCES’ Protective Services team spearheaded a staff food drive and collected non-perishable food items, which were delivered to two food pantries – Damien’s Food Pantry in Wareham and the Charity Guild Food Pantry in Brockton.
During the holiday season and beyond, OCES takes pride in giving back to the communities it serves. OCES encourages employee involvement through volunteering, donating or community service.
