Fundraising initiative titled 'Little Christmas Wish' benefiting the elderly community during Christmas season
In the charming town of Wyomissing, Pennsylvania, a unique Christmas tradition is taking place. This year, Daniel and Vanessa Streek, a couple known for their community involvement, have added a special touch to the festive season.
Vanessa Streek, a teacher at Wyomissing Hills Elementary School, has published an everlasting calendar titled "No matter how far I am, I am always equally close to you." This heartwarming calendar, published by Sibost-Verlag, is a story she wrote and illustrated herself about true love and friendship at a distance.
The calendar's wishes are turned into wish tag cards and hung on a wish Christmas tree at the Grimlinghausener Sparkasse. Any citizen can take and fulfill a wish from the wish Christmas tree, bringing joy to the seniors' eyes.
Daniel and Vanessa Streek have been collaborating with three senior homes for five years: Diakoniestift Norf, Elise-Averdieck-Haus, and Kronenhaus. The staff of these senior homes collects a small Christmas wish from each senior and records them in anonymized lists. The gifts, collected throughout the year, are delivered on Christmas Eve to the senior homes.
However, it's important to clarify that, based on the available information, there is no evidence that Daniel and Vanessa Streek run a charity project specifically associated with senior homes. While there are references to various Daniels involved in community or charity efforts, there is no mention of a project involving senior homes specifically associated with the Streek couple.
