Silver Wishes grants one-time wishes to seniors in Placer County who are facing physical, financial, or emotional hardship.

Typically, a person nominates someone in need to receive a wish.

Their wish criteria is as follows:

• Wishes will focus on experiences and gifts that meet specific needs
  • Cash donations will not be granted; however, gift cards may be considered
• Wishes will not include payment of monthly bills
• Wishes for cars or housing will not be granted; however, minor repairs for these categories may be considered (no structural repairs or remodels)
• Wishes will not include any dental or medical procedures
• Wishes will not include any treatment or care for animals
• Wishes are a one time gift (non recurring)
• Final consideration will be placed on how this wish would benefit the recipient

Additional notes:

Not all wishes will be feasible and it may take several months for a wish to be granted; because of this, Silver Wishes asks clients not tell the nominee that they've been nominated for a wish to avoid potential disappointment.

Completion of the nomination form does not guarantee that a wish will be granted.
