BAKERSFIELD, Calif. â Seniors living in convalescent homes havenât been able to have friends or family visit in nearly ten months because of the pandemic. One Bakersfield woman is doing everything she can to still bring them some joy. We started this campaign to boost morale and spread joy and kindness, said Annette Eggleston.
A campaign called Adopt A Grandparent.
Annette and her two children are using her business, Netteâs Creative Balloons Nâ More, to send âloving balloon buddiesâ to the elderly in Kern County. She said the idea originally came from a fellow balloon artist in North Carolina.
