Each holiday season, Soroptimist International of Boise sponsors a gift-giving project that benefits residents of Treasure Valley nursing homes and care centers, a number of seniors who live independently and kids in the foster care system.

It all started in 1947 in Boise, when Soroptimist members delivered Christmas presents to patients in the old County Hospital. That hospital has since been torn down, but the tradition continues.

For 44 years, the Idaho Statesman has published the wish lists. Soroptimist members coordinate the lists, take the pledges and distribute the gifts to the adult recipients. Idaho Health and Welfare coordinates and distributes the gifts for the kids.

Want to keep the tradition of Treasure Valley generosity alive? Here’s what you do:

• Check this list of names. Choose the person or people you’d like to buy for.

• To fulfill a holiday wish for someone on these lists, visit Soroptimist International of Boise’s webcart at soroptimistboise.org/giftnew. Soroptimist members will be available to assist via phone at 639-5749 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday, Nov. 30, and Tuesday, Dec. 1.

• Gifts should be wrapped and labeled with the recipient’s name and ID number, and delivered to a drop-off location before Friday, Dec. 11. (Scroll down for a list of locations.)

• Needs in addition to the lists inside may be identified at soroptimistboise.org/giftnew. You can also make financial donations to the Soroptimists online or by mailing your contribution to: Soroptimist Int’l of Boise, P.O. Box 8885, Boise, Idaho 83707. Please specify if you would like your contribution to be used exclusively for the Oldsters or Foster Children’s project. Undesignated funds will support Soroptimist Int’l of Boise’s service projects, which work to improve the lives of women and girls, locally and internationally.

• If you are interested in more ways to help in our community, read Anna Webb’s Helping Works column each Tuesday in the Explore section and online at IdahoStatesman.com/living. Anna’s column details opportunities to volunteer and make a difference in our community.
