Homecare Gainesville FL - Touching Hearts at Home Donuts for Seniors FUNdraiser to Benefit Alzheimer's Association
Senior Care Gainesville FL – DONUTS FOR SENIORS & HEALTHCARE HEROES KICKS OFF ON NATIONAL DONUT DAY (FRIDAY, JUNE 4)


Gainesville, Fla. – The first Friday of every June (June 4) is National Donut Day, and the month of June is National Alzheimer’s & Brain Awareness Day. As such, in the spirit of community, Touching Hearts at Home has launched their FUNdraising initiative to celebrate seniors and healthcare heroes in Gainesville, Fla. and the surrounding counties.

This is the second year of Touching Hearts at Home’s Donuts for Seniors program, which was inspired to support seniors and also to honor and celebrate Healthcare Heroes during a pandemic. Touching Hearts at Home is asking members of the community and local businesses to donate monies to purchase Krispy Kreme donuts for seniors and healthcare heroes. Each and every donation will go towards covering the cost of the donuts and the remainder of each donation after the cost of the donuts will benefit the Alzheimer’s Association and the Gainesville Walk to End Alzheimer’s.

Last year, during the inaugural year, over 5,000 donuts were donated to over 35 locations AND $1,500 was donated to the Alzheimer’s Association.

The fundraiser is in support of the Alzheimer’s Association and will support the local Walk to End Alzheimer’s, which is set to take place on Saturday, October 16, 2021.

Now thru July 30, Touching Hearts at Home is asking for community and business support to donate donuts to seniors and healthcare heroes. To donate as an individual or business, please visit our GoFundMe page: https://www.gofundme.com/f/ 2021-donuts-for-seniors.

For every $10 donation for one (1) dozen donuts, $4 will cover the cost of the Krispy Kreme donuts, and the other $3.50 will be donated to the Alzheimer’s Association.

Many individuals are donating in honor of their loved ones who are battling against the disease or died from it. Donors are also encouraged to upload photos to the GoFundMe fundraiser page.

Touching Heart’s Community Care Advocate, Christina Ramos, created the concept in honor of her grandmother, Rita Noa. Christina states, “this program and Touching Hearts at Home were really inspired by my Nana who is currently battling with dementia. This is a really FUN way to raise money for such a great cause while supporting our seniors! We also wanted to recognize our healthcare heroes who DONUT know just how much we appreciate their hard work and dedication. Plus, who doesn’t like Krispy Kreme donuts?!”

In addition, participating assisted living communities in Gainesville and Lake City are being asked to fundraise as well. The assisted living community that raises the most money for the Alzheimer’s Association during “Donuts for Seniors” will receive a donut trophy and a pizza party for their staff compliments of Touching Hearts at Home.

All sponsors who donate fifty (50) dozen donuts (+$500) will receive logo recognition on the commemorative “Donuts for Seniors” t-shirts, which are also for sale to benefit the Alzheimer’s Association.

Official Donuts for Seniors sponsors include: Touching Hearts at Home, Platinum Sponsor – Campus USA, Gold Sponsor – VITAS Healthcare, and Associate Sponsor – Amedisys.
