It is great to hear that you reach out selflessly to the elderly that need it. Helping others does foster a sense of community and belonging that can fight some depression we may face during the holidays. To be helpful to others and feel needed is very important, and people like you are always needed in communities with elderly who have no one else.
When we do feel alone, it benefits to reach out instead of shut ourselves in. We will make others feel better about themselves as well as feel better about ourselves.
