Holiday Season 2025 at Heritage
At Heritage, we want to make the holiday season an extra-special time, and you can be a part of placing smiles on the faces of our residents and staff. There are many ways you can get involved and join with us as we promote Hope, Dignity, and Purposeful Living in our communities.
A keepsake to remember! A memorial ornament is a beautiful way to keep the memory of your loved one close during the holidays and throughout the year. They offer a gentle reminder of the light and love they brought into your life.
Your donation will play a crucial role in providing engaging activities, innovative programming, and most importantly, help offset the Medicaid reimbursement gap Heritage experiences each day that we provide care for Chautauqua County seniors.
Join us on Saturday, December 6, 2025 for some FUN at the Jamestown “The Magic of Holiday Movies” Parade! We invite residents, families, and staff to walk with the Heritage “float” in the parade. More details to follow (parade starts at 6pm, we will meet earlier – meeting time and location TBD). Contact Melissa Seavy with questions at (716) 487-6879 or mseavy@heritage1886.org about how you can participate with Heritage on our float.
Learn more about the Jamestown Holiday Parade and its route here. Please note – Heritage is not coordinating the parade, we are one of the float participants
All are welcome to come and enjoy our special Christmas programming!
