Danish Home in Croton-on-Hudson, New York presents festive 2014 Christmas Seal
The Danish Home in Croton-on-Hudson, New York has again this year sent out their beautiful Christmas stamp seal, which in 2014 is designed by new staff member, Jennifer Stieglitz, and graphic designer Barbara Wertheim brought it to press. This tradition dates back to 1951, not quite as old as the Danish tradition with the world’s first charity seal produced in 1904. The Danish Home is also currently revitalizing their website, so that articles about past notable performers, current residents, and a history of the Home’s Christmas stamps can be read there.
To order your 2014 Danish Home Christmas Seals, please call the Danish Home in Croton-on-Hudson today at 914-271-3052 (while supplies last). A donation of any amount will allow the Danish Home to send you a sheet of these beautiful 2014 Danish Home Christmas Seals. You can use them for your holiday mailings or save them for your holiday memories.
Danish Home celebrates Christmas with several holiday events
On Sunday, December 7, 2014, the annual Christmas Party and Open House will take place between 2 and 4 pm. Danish and American carols are followed by delicious traditional Danish cookies and beverages made by staff and volunteers. Old and new friend can mingle and enjoy the Christmas spirit.
On Tuesday, December 9, 2014, the Duborg-Skolens Lyspiger will be visiting the Danish Home in Croton-on-Hudson with their Santa Lucia procession and sing carols with residents and visitors. The girls’ choir of the Danish minority high school in Flensborg, Germany last visited in 2006.
