The document discusses a program where students write short stories and poems as gifts for senior citizens at a convalescent center during Christmas. Each year, the students compose 200-300 written gifts that they deliver and read to the seniors. The students are initially apprehensive about reading to strangers but enjoy giving of themselves and making a difference through their creativity. The program is a way for the students to give real gifts to real audiences and learn that learning involves freely giving of oneself.
